Subject: OT (-ish): Beeb meetup at BYTE BACK? (March 2009,

OK, tickets booked :-)

About the only thing I can think of that I've got that is 'unusual'
which would be worth bringing along would be a 8x7 LED display that I
built as a project while as an apprentice at Ferranti in, um, 1992 or
so.  Adapted from a magazine design, it nevertheless worked quite
nicely, and looked good in a black poweder-coated box (which I had to
fabricate as well).  Simple 8-bit conection to the user port, and it
used shift registers to hold the display.  I think I know where the
box is, but finding the software may be an issue...  not that I
couldn't recreate it, but I had some nifty patterns and animations
coded up at the time.

Anyway, hope to see you all there...

Rob
