I have posted the slide deck and sample code from my "Interfacing External Hardware Using Managed Code" session that I gave earlier this evening. I hope everyone that attended enjoyed the presentation and got something useful out of it. Other than the RFID hardware failing for the 2nd time on me, I thought it went well. If you have any questions or comments, fire them over to me.
