Hello,

I was thinking. I have been using PICs for a few times before, and I'm
professionally speaking a software guy (up to the edge of hardware,
but hobbyist beyond). For myself a simple processor with very advanced
software support and easy hardware interfacing (as in, electrically)
would be the ideal solution. That rules out any devices I can't solder
(BGA, TQFP), devices with near-none software support (BASIC stamps)
and devices with complex hardware interfacing (FPGA's with softcores).
The only problem I have with SDCC (which I've used up to now) is that
it doesn't support C++ or anything similar.

I'm expressly not out to somebody telling me C++ in a 512 byte device
is bollocks, I know that you can make C++ act like a pig but I also
know that you can make it work like a fairy.

What kind of device would I be best off with?

Regards,
Peter
