    scalerobotics,

    All projects are very nice. I think the project with the "compiler" inside the propeller chip is very impressive. If I was asked to do this project with a PIC, I don't even know where to start from .

    If you liked that one, you might find this interesting as well. In a nutshell, this guy made his own operating system called StickOS, that allows you to program without having to worry about all the gory details. You can do this either by usb, ethernet, serial, or wireless ... and write all your code over that medium.

    This guy is entertaining (at least to me), but he does talk a little fast. I had to watch all three videos. Pretty interesting stuff.

    Very nice. I had to watch all three videos too. It remainded me of when I used to program in QuickBasic.

    Anyone want to chip-in to have a couple PIC32 boards made to try StickOS? Looks pretty interesting.

    I'll design the boards, and build them. We have a RoHS compliant reflow oven, and assembly station to place everything. If I can get a couple people to help split costs for boards & parts, I'll assemble them for free.

    Just ordered samples for 3 x PIC32MX440F512H-80I/PT.
    Regards,
