    A daughter come to her father and says: "Daddy, I want a pony!"
    Then the man says: "Sure Honey, I will get one for you."
    I can almost feel the joy when she gets the computer fully assembled and tested.

    47:26 Actually that did make sense - who knows how many of the header-pin type backplanes you'll have to build in order to get it right the first time with card-edge connectors?

      When you say it like that it does make sense!

      Industry: DIN 41612 connectors have existed before solder was invented, are polarised, rated for hundreds of insertions and good for up to 3Ghz. They cost around one of your currency units 🧐
      Every Z80 board design: - "look at my plastic zip tie connector with foil contacts! And they only cost one of your currency units!🤓"
      😑😭 😸

      ​@@____________________________.xCould you just stop repeating the same lie on every RC2014 video? The cheapest of those stupid din connectors is 3€, standard pin headers only cost cents.
      Also they are breadboard friendly, which the din ones are not.
      No one wants your crappy DIN connectors.

    One hint … on the dip sockets … I usually bend two pins top left, bottom right slightly to secure them … then flip the board

    LCD screens don't like it when the bus speed is too fast. 1 to 2 MHz max. If I recall I pushed it to 4 MHz on my 6502. But there was some character artifacts.. Faster then that, there will be artifacts galore like we saw. You'l need to add wait states, or go through buffers or a PIO, like Ben Eater did by going through the VIA.

      I’ve been able to get up to 10 mhz on the lcd, but if there isn’t a software delay added, you are right, it is hard to see. This issue is different than that. Fun times debugging!

      @@Pony80 Let me know if when you find the issue. I'm curious to see what was the issue.
