Bcoz I like computers ive been asked to build a tree with lights.
Anybody got an idea where i can start. What processor? What speed? How much memory?
"A quicker solution might be to buy the ready made parts (tree and lights) from your local Woolworths."
Sadly, it would probably also be cheaper!
eg, www.woolworths.co.uk/.../index.jsp
160 LEDs for under GBP 19 is only about 11p each, including wire and power supply, etc!
