Mmm, I love the G15. It's a shame theres so few programs and games that use the LCD screen on it.

Everyone here has old hard drives. Why not make a hard drive clock?

Hi, all.

Here is another oscilloscope clock. This one has a built-in Real Time Clock but can also be fed the 1 PPS signal from a GPS clock. The clock is controlled using a serial port (like COM1 on your computer) and even has a demo mode!
