[oopic] Need your advice on BIG robot

Hi,
Just need some input from anyone about this Robot I've been working
on. It's a med to large platform, much like the White box 914 but a
little bigger. I will be using Via M-1000 x86 board for the main
controller, talking to the uP(OOPics and a Moto brainstem) network for
sensor input and output control. My question is: how would you network
4 OOPics and others. I'm thinking that a seprate USB-to-serial bridge
at each sub processor.
My plan is to use MSRS to fuse the inputs and control, of course I'll
need to wright/find a MSRS service to 'talk' SCP to the OOPics. My main
concern is would it be more trouble having to service 6 or 7 serial
ports independently or have a I2C network with all sensor data?
