Sorry I've been absent; was out of town for a few days.

My main concern and/or question about an "Electronic's Corner" is that I would assume other sites exist that are generic electronics sites where these types of topics can be discussed. While an electronic's corner could be created here, is this really the best place for it?

Should 8052.com remain very focused on 8052? Or should it branch out and cover other areas? The idea has been raised that we should also accept topics about 16-bit versions of the 8052, such as "XA", etc.

I think the question is how much "subject area" a site such as 8052.com should cover? By remaining focused on 8052, the site would theoretically be better for purely 8052 information. However, 8052, by its nature, implies other technologies since an 8052 very seldom stands alone. The question is how "far out" this site should go.

I'm open for additional input on this since it's an issue I've been struggling with for some time.

PS--I am generally pretty lenient as far as topics that are technically "off-topic" go. As long as it is made clear that an 8052 is part of the design I usually won't close a thread.
