[EEG] Fwd: open eeg/ocz nia "success"

[Josh Bailey]

Sure y'all are tired of hearing from me already. Does it make the most 
sense for me to stop sending email and come observe this multichannel 
beast (Sunday afternoon, isn't it?) and actually meet some of you?

Not sure if neuroserver needs some hacking to glue multiple digital boards 
together to make one big multichannel system?

OK getting way too far ahead already, will be quiet now... :)
