Someone did something like this in Dwarf Fortress a while back, although I dont remember if it was as complex as this or not.. Pretty damn neat none the less!
"I only had a basic understanding of logic gates, flipflops, and adders before starting this project,"
i bet he now knows A LOT MORE!!
awesome stuff.
maybe somewhere in the future, this minecraft platform can grow into something advance enough to even have a fully operational computer!
maybe even an Altair Emulator???? or an Atari emulator complete with joystick and TV!!!!!
This guy is going to design alot of CPUs. Some ask why, he asks "why the hell not". To me this is like speanding a heap of time to write something in QBasic that would take a couple of hours in C++ or Java just to show you can do it. Well, to each his own ^_^

It is amazing how difficult something can be that is so seemingly simple on the surface. It gives you a healthy respect for the magic that is modern day electronics.

Creeper says, "That's a nice CPU you have there. It'd be a shame if something were to happen to it..." (yes, I realize he was playing on peaceful difficulty)
