I mounted slots for my 7 segment display controllers. I mostly slavaged them. Also, I got my 2 pieces of PIC16F884, which has 40!! pins each and what's even more important it has a lot more program memory.

One will be used for my compiler, another for my CPU.

What will make the computer to execute is a firmware that will output basic code (for setting things up) to the CPU which will execute it.

Follow up to come.
