The September issue of Electronics Today International begins a new series
by Robin Abbot (he of the ETI universal PIC programmer) detailing a BASIC
microcontroller. Rather than pass judgement, I'll just snip out the relavent
bits for your perusal:-

Next month ETI will be sold with a free PCB which is specially designed for
the ETI BASIC microcontroller ..... The PCB will also be useful to anyone
 designing with 18 pin PIC devices since it can act as a PIC prototyping board.
 It will
hold any 18 pin PIC with crystal oscillator, a 5V regulator, a low cost RS232
serial interface and an I2C interface for 8 pin I/O devices........ Any 18 pin
device may be used 16C54, 56, 58, 71, 84 etc The lower 4 bits of port A are
used for the I2C interface and for the external serial interface [me - a
brownout circuit is also provided] All 8 port B lines and RTCC are available
for I/O ..... The EEPROM may be up to 8k in size, allowing programs of up to
about 1,000 lines of BASIC code to be developed...... The system is based on
the Windows development system which allows multiple files to be edited,
assembled and linked, and for programs to be downloaded and tested. Finally,
an autoboot facility allows the module to automatically run programs when it
is powered up, allowing stand-alone systems to be developed.... code for
interfacing to a 24LC16 and for interrupt driven serial port is also given.

Me again

Unfortunately, I have no experience of the Parallax STAMP gear so I've no
idea what advantages (if any) Robin's unit has. (anyone help here???) I
would suspect cost might be a factor though ;-)
Also, an ongoing article by Bart Trepak describes how to design a PIC based
project. (an alarm clock)

This magazine really is the dogs whatsits for the PIC hobbyist.

Now, about my years free subscription .........

Oh BTW, the address for ETI wordwide is in the FAQ.
