Sorta neat, I don't think its terribly useful.  SInce the different layers
(however many they are) cross each ohter between layers, its really hard to
tell what goes where.  And while an ohm meter is suitable for tracing
circuit boards, having parts on the board realy makes it nearly impossible
to really know what goes where.  All you need is a diode and the ohm meter
going the right way, and it appears to be a foil trace.

I've spent a lot of time growing up reverse engineering not so
sophisticated items before.  Mostly electronics in musical instruments and
MIDI related stuff.

Well, I did it for giggles, not really expecting anything useful.  But it
was an opportunity to play with million dollar equipment :)

Not sure really... you get 11x16" film and that's about it I think.  Though
we just installed video capture equipment on both the X-ray machines and
the MRI machines, so images can be reviewed without film - a major expense
for the hospital I work at.  Though considering they are upgrading all
their networks to 100MB of bandwith point to point for the 20-25MB images
that have to pass through, its not exactly cheap either.

That's my job function - I design and manage the implementation of anything
relating to the backbone.

Just got lucky with the department head of radiology - he's a sports car
enthusiast...
