Thanks! Had a good bit of fun reading that.
I’m not going to try building an FPGA version though. Not yet.

Google/Android's version of the same. In a couple cases (like the CM's LED
panels) I used it intentionally to capture motion. In others, I had
forgotten to shut it off :(
I can/should go

Please bottom-post on the list.
It looks to me like an Apple "live photo".

Oh, I forgot - the problems with all CM-2s is that they are
fantastically useless machines. The SIMD hypercube architecture looked
good on paper...

Most were 16K machines, I think.

What is that wonderfully evil looking computer halfway down the pictures with
all the red blinkin LEDs? That would make a wonderful centerpiece to an evil
lair!
Cute bunny rabbit!!!
