Hey, looks good! Is that a ULG I see in the ALU? I can't really get on the server to take a look, would you mind posting a little info about the components? Actually, even just the instruction set it runs would work since that would tell me what I want to know about the functionality.
*Ahem* Never mind, found the guide. Well, it's very impressive! I noticed you use 6 main functions in the ALU, I assume you intend to use inverting from there to make all 16 functions possible. Did you know that you can actually make all 16 functions possible using inverting with just an OR gate? It does add to the number of instructions required, but it might help to improve speed. I learned that from Guy's ALU, just thought I'd share, haha. Great job with the computer overall, 0.5 Hz is excellent for your first computer!
