Hey Jonathan,
  I'm interested to hear what you plans are for incorporating linux in a tank.  Its 
something I've been looking at for a while.  So far I have a cheap laptop with linux 
and two EV warrior motors that both need a tank built around them.
  I'm planning to use 802.11 in place of a radio and drive everything with the 
parallel port initially.  After I get that up and running I'll be looking to give it 
some intelligence and maybe a sidekick or two.   Yes, I do have high hopes. . .
