I win the "first to score in a game of Pong on the Arduino" contest. :-)

Wrote this one up this evening. Was pretty simple using the Arduino TVout
library that Chris pointed out. Code is included in the Flickr photo:

Thanks... Now I just need a second potentiometer in order to make it work
for two players.... :-)

I would really like to do some higher resolution stuff, but there's
apparently not enough on-board memory on the Arduino to hold a larger frame
buffer.
With some work, it might be possible to use an external RAM chip to store
the frame buffer. Anyone know anything about using external RAM with an
Arduino? We actually designed memory architectures in school last Fall, so I
actually don't feel like it would be too hard. The programming would
probably be the most challenging part.

That WAS my free time! Now I don't get any more for a week or so. :-)

It's pretty amazing to me that you can just toss something like that together... How long did it take to code?

Maybe 3-4 hours.
Once I figured out how to actually draw something to the screen, that was
the hard part. :-)
