David Lawrence: Alright the Geek Speak Phrase. You know I could have saved JPEG for the Geek Speak Phrase but Ms. Von Schtupp has gone through all these trouble of putting you know Geek Speaks in there I don*t want to disappoint her make her do all that work unless it*s something really important like 100% legal and then I have to go over that.

Now what is an imbedded system imbedded system so remember, remember when Y2k was had everybody just running around like chickens with their heads cut off you know everybody thought the entire universe was going to collapse because computer couldn*t recognize the year 2000 but some other computers were not accessible with keyboards And mice because they were imbedded in cars, in refrigerators, in televisions, in elevators, in security systems and so on. That*s what an embedded system is. It is inside the device that it controls. It is inside of thermostat it is inside the car, it is inside the security of the alarm. Those are imbedded systems and you find them in ATMs you find them in cell phones, you find them in printers, in disc drives. They all have little tiny computers in there, a little tiny systems in there that run things over and above what a normal PC or Macintosh would run. So embedded systems are everywhere and embedded systems luckily are disposable so that*s why we got passed Y2K because any embedded systems that didn*t work got updated either flashed or replaced. And you know we still see things going just from here and there but not nearly as bad as everybody thought it was. Embedded systems that is this hour*s Geek Speak they make the world go around there is lot more embedded systems in our PCs in the world that is this hours* Geek Speak.
