 *  \section Sec_Description Project Description:
 *
 *  Firmware for a USB Virtual Serial to HD44780 LCD controller project, by Simon Foster. This
 *  project connects a standard HD7780 compatible LCD controller to a PC via a virtual serial
 *  link, so that data supplied by the host can be written to the display. This project is
 *  designed to use the Minimum USB AVR board, however it can be modified to suit other hardware
 *  if desired.
 *
 *  LCD Datasheet:    http://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/LCD/HD44780.pdf \n
 *  More Information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HD44780_Character_LCD \n
