Sounds like a very reasonable system.  Most OEM systems are much simpler
electronically than a PC type system would be, but there is nothing
stopping you from doing so.

Except maybe the 1 minute of counting memory in the beginning - would
have to have the ECM/PC sit in "suspend" mode I'd imagine, so when you
turn the key, its there, ready to go.
