Thanks MRC and everybody who helped out. I got the two boards, networked, and I use that term very loosesly (wire and code). This little experiment gave me some insight as to what it takes to get two uC to talk to each other. 

The problem that I have with serin/serout, is that you can not use an interrupt when implementing those commands. In my project I am still leaning towards having a multi tasking scenario within an SX/B framework; I am still looking at Peter's (pjv) RTOS code for more insight. If I go with SPI, I2C, ..., etc, all of that code is in asm, which means I would have to convert the VP's to SX/B format, and there are no real examples as to how I would implement a command(s) to make it work. I already tried doing an asm UART, within SX/B, resulting in, not working. I am thinking that I might present that code in another thread, with lots of people looking at it, maybe I could get it to work. That could be the second VP within an SX/B framework, the first VP being Jon's SIRCS_ISR, of course.

The next area of investigation would be virtual ciruits. I can see down the road that I will need some devices that require an ADC, and I believe that the SX can do this within code. I could be mistaken about this, if I am correct, that means one less chip on my board. 

Thanks

Ray
