Christmas Toy

This is Michael.  Look at the toy Jeremy and Florence made me for Christmas!


It is about 10" by 7" by 3", made from a food storage container, and wallpapered with the wrapping paper I teased them with last year.


It comes with many useful features.  For example, it plays music:

Did you catch that message?  That is OK, it is just a taunt.  It seems likely that I will get further with the information on the DVD.  You saw that eject button, right?



Too bad the information under the help function is so thin!


Serious kudos to Jeremy for assembling this from scrap electronics.  He had to use imagination and perseverance to mount the components in a non-standard platform, not to mention designing the electronics and program!
