Actually I've been trying to read each of these posts and several of the 
individual emails I've received. Unfortunately, since wednesday I have 
had a small family crisis I am currently having to deal with.

Rest assured I will pick the CPU, but if I'm going to hire someone to 
help port software I want their input first if possible.

Our web page is indeed rather poor. The domain is mostly used for email 
and networking a few remote individuals. Creating a relevant up to date 
web page is desirable, but alas a little lower on the list.

The other individuals on this project so far are in agreement with me 
that it is a good idea to bring in some specific expertise to get a 
uClinux OS working on a platform specific to our needs.

I will follow up all the email I've received next week. Thank you all 
who have offered some very good advice.

cheers,
darryl
