heh, Joe loves flashing his blue LED all over the place.
:roflmao:
Oh please Cecilia: Please DO "tell all" !
I'm proud to admit I showed you my wares!
(I have pix, so bring it woman!) 8*D
Good times, good times...
...But just to correct the record: My showing off of a "Blue-LED" as a novelty for attention back around 1987, when the LEDs cost over $40 dollars EACH, and were only used in medical devices (Zaney, but I bought two of them from Phillips).
I think you have a memory of me showing you not a Blue, but rather an UltraViolet LED.
The most recent escapade of me showing an exotic LED was (before most of the public had seen them) the UltraViolet LEDs (390um) that I brought to Kermit Woodall's Amiga Expo show in Baltimore 2002. At the Expo I popped many new "LED cherries" with all the assembled guests - NOBODY had ever seen a UV-LED before!
Fortunately, I brought dozens of the UV-LEDs and gave most of them away to fellow hackers, (WITH a color warning sticker that I'd printed about them not being eye-safe!).
When they have X-Ray LEDs, I will be the first person you know to get and show them around to others!
