The new S2 Scribblers from Parallax are in, and they feature a couple of cool new features. First: They're Open-Source! Yup, they've opened up all the design files to make hacking oh-so-much easier!

You will not believe what happened today.
Our boss showed up to work today wearing a red shirt with beige pants. BEIGE PANTS!
Also, he just so happens to be leaning on the brand-new laser that was delivered not 20mins ago. It's a 60W Eplilog Helix (which you may have figured out for yourself), and comes with 33% more buttons, blue-painted bits, and watts than our old (and crispy) 40W model. And as we all know, more buttons = more awesome.
This would be the part where we say, "Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station!" But first we need to finish the renovations and have a place to plug it in (along with the neglected Pick-n-Place machines also in the photo).
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go crack a whip over those slackers building the clean room. It's a laser, people. A LAAAZOR. Priorities don't get much more important than that.
