Much respect to Dave Presotto and the others who helped out
with the Bitsy port.

My serial cable arrived this morning, and it was about a 20
minute procedure to install Plan 9 on it and get it working
with the office WaveLAN; most of that time was copying data
over via the serial interface.

I'm currently using it to listen to the audio tracks from a
CD physically  in the CD-ROM drive on my ``normal'' terminal.
The audio is a little choppy (I suspect the wavelan can't
keep up), but I can understand the lyrics.

People in the office have been pretty flipped when they've
seen it today (``so it's running CE?'' ``Nope.'' ``Woah....'').

This is extremely cool!
