My 32 Year Old CPU Design Running on an FPGA via Logisim Simulation [Video] (youtube.com)

I hope this post isn't against some written or unwritten rules (I know it doesn't meet the requirements of Show HN).

This is a modified version of my CPU design which was a homework assignment in one of my college classes 32 or so years ago. I originally drew the design on paper (homework), and a few years ago, I put it in Logisim. Since I don't have an FPGA board, I gave my design to Dr. Kevin Walsh, and he ran it (with his modifications (mostly cosmetic)) on his FPGA.
