This was a lot of fun to put together and I already have a plan for its use - it will display usage statistics for a web server farm that I monitor. My only beef with this thing is that it doesn't seem to work through a powered USB hub. It works fine on any straight-to-PC connection so far but my D-Link 7-port powered hub allows it to connect but my PC won't talk to it.

A fun little kit, with lots of potential uses. |

The kit arrived neatly packaged with all parts present. Soldering it was swift and without any problems. The assembly instructions are very detailed and easy to follow.
After a quick check of component placing and soldering, I plugged it in and it worked right away. It displays all numbers and the letters a-z, and a some symbols like ?!"'*=+-. A few of the letters and symbols does look a little strange, but it is not a big issue.
I use it under OS X and it works very well. Sending data to it is very simple and it quite cleverly discard unsupported and excess characters. I have only gotten around to making a clock so far, but have plenty of ideas for other things to display.
