Apologies if I'm too far OT with this one,

But i was gobsmacked to read about Canberra company Xitel in the New York Times

the article is here:

Apparently they've single handedly saved the Sony MiniDisc in the US market with a specialised sound-card (read the article to see how)

The whitepages has them with an office on Constitution Avenue but i've never heard anything about them before now and was suprised to be reading about them in the NY Times

Not much linux, but very Canberra and tech
