First one (Pi 3B+) has a rectangular LED showing the time with a scrolling marquee settable via a webservice (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/getting-back-basics-terence-davis/ if anyone is interested). Second one (Pi ZeroW) runs a round LED face and analog "hands." Two more projects in mind after I put the finishing touches on the round-face clock.

I remember our Hayes 300 baud modem that I could tweak to 450(!!!) on compatible BBSs. I wish I could remember my CompuServ number. Long passed into oblivion. . .

I had a Level I that was shortly upgraded to a Level II. I learned an awful lot on that machine: BASIC, self-modifying code, tokenized languages, simple graphics. I foolishly took it apart years later.

I had a ~900GB MythTV box for three or four years until I recently upgraded to FiOS TV. Unfortunately, my TV capture card (Hauppauge) doesn't recognize the channels I care about most (SciFi, BBC America). I don't know if this is fixable but in my limited free-time it didn't make the cut to figure out.

I really miss that machine. Aside from having hundreds and hundreds of hours of record-time, I found the interface and functionality far superior to my Verizon-provided DVR. Other posters are correct in that getting MythTV up and running can be a bit of a chore, though it has improved a lot, once you spend the time to get it going it's quite bullet-proof.
