Class confusion

[Matt Jones]

# Something like...

class SystemList(object):
   def get_systemid(self):
      return "System Id: bleh"

   def get_running_kernel(self):
      return "Kernel: bleh"


class SatelliteConnect(object):
   def get_systemlist(self):
      return SystemList()


# Now the code you wrote would work, only return those literals thought,
you'd want to do something meaningful inside of SystemList's methods.
