I have an 8749 that runs 16 different patterns on a string of 16 LEDs. The catch is you do have to run a wire to each one. But that wasn't good enough. The mark 2 light blinker is a 68000 that can do 60 or 70 different effects on a 16 by 64 array of LEDs. I use this as part of a halloween costume. Of course with only 1024 solid state relays it would be possible to run an array of Christmas bulbs. ______________________________________________________________________________ _ /| -ACK!
