Texas Instruments has gone big league by becoming a NASCAR sponsor. Car owners are Roger Staubach and Troy Aikman. Drivers are going to be Terry Labonte and Tony Raines. They had the car at the Sherman site so I ran up there with my boy to snap some pics.

Is that one of those new fangled bass boats with a wrap:-)

I would had to try a hot wired it, so I could take it for a spin.

Pretty cool. I caught the race they ran it in this year when Tony Stewart drove it. I'm at the TI in Richardson.

I'm at the Richardson site too. I just live in Sherman so I went there to see the car. What building do you work in? I'm currently in DMOS 5.

Here's a pretty good description OZ.

Short for Digital Light Processing, a new technology developed by Texas Instruments used for projecting images from a monitor onto a large screen for presentations. Prior to the development of DLP, most computer projection systems were based on LCD technology which tends to produce faded and blurry images. DLP uses tiny mirrors housed on a special kind of microchip called a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD). The result is sharp images that can be clearly seen even in a normally lit room.

Wow, I wonder if that will be the standard? I just bought a Sony 40" LCD.
