Just wondering how many of you are into programming PIC or Basic SX? |

I have been a been designing microprocessor based products (hardware and firmware) for the past 20 years. Have used the PIC 16Cxx family processors in several products. |

Been arguing, fighting, and loosing battles to embedded systems for 25 years. Have looked at PICs and STAMPs but mostly worked w/the classic Motorola stuff.
I like Allen Bradley PLC 2/30's and 3's where you gotta have a 6 foot square by 1 foot deep enclosure to hold it. Lotsa room to misplace tools. |

I've used the flash 8 bit microcontrollers from PIC and AVR - mostly programmed in assembler, but also have used a C compiler. The Basic Stamp modules are expensive - better to get just the device with the features you need - more flexibility and programming choices. I believe Microchip still offers free samples of some of their devices and there are lots of free plans on the net to build your own programmer, so it's inexpensive to get into this stuff... |

I've done a little on PICs, but mostly 32-bit PowerPC these days. |
