Wonderful example of something inexpensive now that would be difficult and
expensive 25 years ago.


There was a hobby magazine project published somewhere at least 2 decades
ago, similar type of thing as the DCA55 - it was pretty much someone
thinking up something impressive to do with a HD44780 LCD module.

IIRC it was mostly SSI/MSI - unfortunately I can't remember what magazine it
was, or whether a PIC based version was ever released into the public
domain.
