Amen to that!

I've got a project going now that reads a set of thumbwheel switches,
a serial ADC, and a GPS module. It stores the data in a serial EEPROM
and allows user data retieval over either RS-232 or USB.=20

With the exception of Microchip's USB code and a few functions I have
yet to complete, I'm not quite up to 1K now (and even less without all
of my debug code).

Even after working with these things for quite a while, I'm still
frequently surprised at just how little code space a PIC program
requires.
