Hi Bruce,

I'll vote with Walter on a BS2 style board (breadboard plugable). Put me down for two.

I am curious. For instance you want to use a LCD charactor display. We have no "LCDOUT" command. I am assuming we go retro and write subroutines like the original stamp programs or Pic Basic? I need to study the user manual and example some more.

Thanks
Mark

It looks like you go retro, as you say. Or you can just use a serial LCD display. There are definitely some things that are not here, but it looks like it can do a lot with what it does have. Perfect for simple projects, or getting beginners into the mix. Might even pull more newcomers into upgrading to PicBasicPro, after they have the basic skills, and learned some of the logic.

Here is the quick reference guide: http://www.cpustick.com/downloads/quickref.v1.70.pdf

Sounds like a good way to fry some cells, put me down for 2 if the price is right - bread board style

What are we looking at for a ballpark price???
