If last month's Infrastrucuture issue was too "big" for you then try on this month's Embedded issue. Find out how to use Player for programming mobile robots, build a humidity controller for your root cellar, find out how to reduce the boot time of your embedded system, and if you're new to embedded systems find out the basics that go into one. You can also read about the Beagle Board, the Mesh Potato and a spate of other interestingly named items. And along with our regular columns don't miss our new monthly column: Economy Size Geek.

Having just spent the last (in addition to many other) rainly weekends playing this game I have got to let you know that should you purchase this game you <i><b>will</b></i> become addicted to it. My son, brother and I have even once managed to get all 24 tuxes balanced. I'd post the victory picture if I had a scanner. I was glad to see it's still for sale- just bought two copies for the cousin's this coming Christmas.

1. Once upon a time there was a game involving penguins.
2. For a while the penguins were happy on their iceberg.
3. But after falling over once too often
4. They ganged up together
5. And got a bit mean.
6. One penguin, however didn't agree with this new policy
7. and all his friends
8. dragged him to the Penguin Council
9. But he had really bad breath
10. after all, he had been eating fish :p
11. Once the council revived, though
12. They dragged him off to his doom,
13. but he was too heavy, and they dropped him,
14. and so he breathed his last (halitosis) breath
