    Very cool Darrel. Have you ever thought about marketing this type of approach as a tutorial series? Food for thought.

    I had plans, many years ago, to do something like this, but with a bit of a twist. A complete digital electronics training / development system, half virtual (like what you have done here) -- and half "real". The real part would have plugged into your parallel port (of course today though you'd go with USB) -- and allowed the user to setup the circuits on it, just as they see it on their screen. The virtual side would check the circuit and spit out exercises to complete.

    I actually presented the idea to Silicon Chip. They thought it sucked harder than a heated vacuum cleaner..

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    Getting distracted, starting to think about bullet proof vests again.

    I hope it is a level IIIa type, because otherwise they're going to be sweating and shaking all over the place. Only the IIIa will protect against 0.44 caliber.

    Oh yeah ... I want one of those ... Not.

    Thanks for trying out the Flash yous guys.

    Do you feel like you better understand how a PORT works?

    I was thinking of trying Timer2 with the CCP module (without the game).
