If this is just an unused chip to substitute if one fails then I think I've

Right. Get 'em hooked on Minecraft, and then it'll be easier to push them
into harder drugs like VHDL later! :)
There is a good grain of truth to that. In complex Minecraft command
block systems, a programmer has to think about many, many tasks,
running in parallel, each triggered by real time
Hi Noel,
If you have a minute, call me.
