Highly likely for a LCD panel that went on overhead projectors, I had a few teachers that had these.

I wanted one of these so bad as a kid, My Dad searched his whole building and every network closet he could get access to to see if he could get a middle school me a glimpse. Yes, Id like to see those pictures.

I Have the 600 from the documentation they suggest if your using it with a soft power machine to use it to turn your printer/scanner/external HD. you can even run scripts have it start from a phone ring, auto start after power failure, etc.

I'll be following this, it might finally get me interested in coding again, haven't done any since High School.

If memory serves me the schematics are from when the original company sold a kit for making it on your own before Farallon bought them and their new design that they then released under the Farallon brand.
