That's right.. And your not using it because.. Err..? Um.. I guess I have been better at technology than marketing...

I suppose so. This brings to mind the dream project enviroment. Screw MPlab, it tells you a little about what is ticking inside the PIC. That is neat. But what I want is a PICTURE of the final project, as pretty as the mechanical engineers across the hall with their photorender programs can generate, with a full slate of LCDs, LEDs, pushbuttons, and so on, BUT running raw, native PIC code (simulated on the PC) and showing how it will REALLY work. The wheels turn, the LCD screens have the right graphics, the blue LED's are blue, the volume control changes the volume, 7 segment displays look like 7 segment displays and also drive like them, the socks roll up and down, the ice cream melts, the fat lady sings at the end and the whole 9 yards. Sort of a holodeck for PICs. I have heard of stuff that approaches this, like PIC simulators + Spice, how close do we get in reality? -- Lawrence Lile Wouter van Ooijen Sent by: pic microcontroller discussion list 07/16/2003 01:09 PM Please respond to pic microcontroller discussion list To: PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU cc: Subject: Re: [PIC] How relevant is Visual Basic to PIC? > Wouter, I must respectfully disagree. Visual basic is very relevant > to the PIC. I don't deny that VB can be important in a PIC project, but following your line of reasoning *any* language that can run on a PC (or whatever other platform you are prototyping and/or building the front end on, and can be translated somehow to execute on a PIC) can be important for a PIC. You can choose that side, but it reduces the statement to 'language X is releveant for PIC development.' for each and every X you can dream of.
