Right , so I've brought one of these..... Its a DIY kit computer that runs FORTH, going to stick it together for some fun and see what I can get it to do... official site here - sites.google.com/site/libby8dev/fignitionCouple of issues I can see, I'm colour blind and Ive never used FORTH........a recent change in circumstance has allowed me the extra time to crack on with stuff like this again - and it'll keep me more than happy till my Raspberry PI turns up ..

Fantastic, its arrived !!! Number - 5013 apparently. Better get the iron and the meter out ! Interestingly, it appears to be a slightly different board to the one I initally thought I was ordering.......something about it now has AUDIO.... Time for some suitably silly 80's bleepy electronica if I can get my head round it. See you in a while..... £21 well spent I think..

Is there anyway of saving what you program? Audio out to a tape recorder?

Yeah, to your pc, or onto a small flash rom think on the device itself. :-)
