thanks for that darrel...

Actually, i currently have no plans to use the USB nor the USARTs but i may do at some point...

i'm actually only using two ADC's in my curent project, however, i do have plans to use them all so the extra 5 will come in handy...
The anoying thing is the extra ADC's are on a port i'm using for an LCD.. looks like it'll have to be moved...

Thanks
