Kalyan, The gray squares on the LCD simply mean that the HB doesn't have its pcode program loaded. So it doesn't indicate a hardware failure.

This is a thing I have been pondering too.

Nice article. Aside from the minor "legos" nit, which we will never win, I suppose, I found this article to be free of "isn't that cute" or "that is weird" overtones that you find sometimes.
