Paper Computing Among the Young

PpCNerds writes: "On April 10th, 2002, Dearborn High School students Mark Stanislav, Luke Duncan, and James Turner won First Place Gold in the Science and Engineering Fair of Metropolitan Detroit with their 'Paper Computer' Practical Application project. Many may remember the Paper Computer from past Slashdot and Wired Magazine articles. With the help from friend and Computer Engineering student Alex Fisher, who is also quite handy at this sort of thing (Wearable Computer), the group of geeks were able to turn this project into a success in the eyes of SEFMD judges with 2 and 1/2 months of research and contacting people in the field. This win takes Mark, Luke, and James to the Intel sponsored International competition in Louisville, Kentucky."

    It seems like all they did is buy all of the components and plug everything in (with the exception of the power supply).
