Wow this was not a cheap project! Thanks Ebay collectors.

Also probably the only time I'd have gone for an LCD over a VFD. If you're running a multi-year long compile, it'll probably be burned in to hell by the end.

Is a project worth receiving a honorary PHD if you ask me. Sadly university staff does not read HN too much.

It's not original research. A Master's Thesis at most, or only a Bachelor's Degree Final Project. Regardless, doing such amazing work for a blog (and geek fame) is amazing.

  Since when does an honorary PhD requires original research?

  Sorry, bad reading comprehension on my part! I see honorary PhDs often used to express political support, instead of honest admiration of achievements.

  hm perhaps you right, I just meant that this is worth appraisal since it is so academic-level detailed, and I can imagine few universities where this can be a PHD thesis. I guess some parts of the whole reading can also rate original research.
