That startkit looks fun! But, like, 256K flash is a little... Limiting. But
hey, styx on a brick only needed 32K. Maybe a teensy emu could run on there
with an external memory source. You're right, it totally screams 9! Oooooh,
that gives me an idea... A portable cluster. At 500 MIPS a pop, I bet an
interesting system could come about... Or a weird little distributed
system. Or a coprocessor for the 9-running pi Who knows? But it looks fun :D

Get the 2MB RAM expansion card - goes in the slice connector.
