Interesting! I've always been thinking of doing a bit-serial ALU, just to keep

I actually got as far as cooking up a suitable design, but that's sadly in a
notebook that's in storage right now (although I think I can remember enough
to reproduce it). I've got no TTL handy here though right now (that's in
storage too), but was screwing around with writing a logic simulator the other
day, which will at least allow me to prototype some stuff.

All this talk of CPUs got me back onto thoughts of homebrew CPU
design, which has been a stalled project of mine for the last year or so.
Check here for ideas.
