This guy built a computer from scratch. I'm not talking about purchasing parts from Newegg and putting it together. He actually built the parts:

hand-wrapped CPU

"it took him about a year and a half from design to finish."

Obviously has become very familiar with his hands. Good luck bro.

WOW!!!

After seeing that I think will get started carving out a new set of tires for my car from a TREE!!!

Very impressive. Most people don't realize just how much goes into a single CPU. Could you imagine if he built a modern day processor?

Yes, yes I could.

His Grandchildren's Grandchildren would have to finish it and that one would still be of NO USE to them either!!! (Compared to what will be available to them at that time. Cost, Time, and Speed/Capacity considered!!)

I'm also a HUGE FAN of the GRANT MONEY being spent to try and build a Pyramid out of solid 100 ton stones instead of modern building materials.

Oh, did I mention that I go out & play "Civil War" too!!!

SHEEZZ!!!!

Why this guy would waste such OBVIOUS talent making something that has been made before which has become obsolete is beyond "me".


To "me" that would be like creating an old BBS with 9600 baud modems on regular phone lines and trying to launch a NEW affiliate program, instead of putting my energies into the "Modern BBS"!!
