Next stop: World of Warcraft for Sinclair wrist calculators
Pretty much every time a new update appears in the Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories RSS feed, I am reminded of my own hateful indolence and miserable lack of talent.
Windell and Lenore have really outdone themselves this time, though.
(I think the next kit I get around to building will actually be a ThingamaKIT. If, that is, you don’t count the trapezoidal loudspeakers and giant box of medieval wood from Ron Toms that’ve been awaiting my attention for lo, these many months.)
It’d be even more impressive if they’d followed the original schematics and rebuilt it out of discrete transistors, resistors, capacitors, and relays, rather than cheating and using a microcontroller with a DAC.

(P.S. Atmel AVR roolz! Microchip PIC droolz! And don’t even get me started on the 8051…)
