I'm sorry, but can you explain just a little more?
I'm sorry, but can you explain just a little more?
25 years ago (1978) you made a computer that used a LCD display (invented 1971, on a MC6809 (that the first reference I can find to is a Motorola Inc., MC6809 Preliminary Programming Manual, Austin, 1979), and then you went and said " hose motherboard was embedded in a 3-ring binder, with sheets."
Now, I'm assuming you had to be at a bear minimum 16 years old when you did this back in 1978, making you 44 now at a minimum. And as a 44+ year old that use to do cool shit like this (if it's true) you still have the time/interest to post to/.?
I don't completely mean to question your honesty, but, more so, if what your saying is true, I would be VERY impressed, and would love to meet you someday.
