Thank you Ken for that wonderfull explaination.

I liked what you said about the Propeller and I once owned a Hydra but found SPIN difficult to pick up as I was focused on SX/B at the time and seemed much like C which I was not a C programmer at the time. I started to learn C for the AVR but very much a beginner. The AVR was a boss mandated idea as I would have stuck with the SX48 and SX/B (Go with what you know). I do not like C and more comfortable with SX/B. 

I understand that there are some variants of BASIC available for the Propeller but as I have not looked lately, do not know if they are as robust as SX/B is. 

With this new EOL event of the SX line, it would be very nice and turn so many more customers onto the Propeller if there was an Propeller BASIC as good as SX/B is. My guess is that this is not in Parallax's plans to do such from past threads I have read. But perhaps now it is a good one to go forth with. I would certainly use the Propeller if there was a robust BASIC like SX/B for the Propeller. 

Thanks for listening.
