Taking this thread _totally_ OT, my solution doesn't involve using a Duo
or 2400 at all, but instead employs the most reliable of all digital
technologies:
How about using large handwritten numerals which can be manually attached
to an even larger board? Using the most sophisticated processors
available to drive the numerical array, when the score changes, digits
(fingers attached to hands ;-) replace the old score with the updated
score. Operating such an astounding device would be simplicity itself,
where even a small child could master its controls. :-)
And best of all, it fits the low-cost design spec to a T. Operating costs
are low, energy consumption minimal (perhaps a few snacks per game for
the operator.)

Dan K ("Simple" is my middle name! :-)
