How about a PIC controlled binary clock?. Something that is a fun project, but also useful to learn binary? (Although most of them are actually BCD rather than true binary).
Good for beginners and nerdy enough for people like me !!!

Yeah - that could possibly be something interesting and even legal too. BCD - Binary Coded Decimal is as such binary. BCD is the binary equivalent of a decimal value. Binary is a base 2 number system wit LSB to the right and MSB to the left. 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 - these are the actual decimal weights of the bits. When a bit is set, in BCD, it's weight is added together with other set bits and their weights to form BCD.Originally Posted by bcd
