Hi All,

Been some 18 months since I posted a message here.

In Australia we have an item that the rest of the world knows nothing about=
..

A Maximite SM1 prototype is being shown in the northern hemisphere for the =
first time at=20
http://makerfaire.com/detroit/2011/ in Detroit at the end of this month, at=
 Chuck Hellebuyck's stand.

What is a Maximite?
Remember the TRS80 computers from the late 1970's? What about programming i=
n QBasic in the 90's? Well, this little=20
computer will bring back some memories. Even if you don't remember those wo=
nderful things from the early days of PC's,=20
you will still find the Maximite interesting, and useful!

The Maximite is a hand sized computer based on the Pic32 processor. You can=
 program it in MMBasic (very similar to=20
QBasic), it runs on 9 volts or USB power, connects to a VGA screen (or TV) =
and standard PC keyboard, and has 20 I/O pins=20
you can access with software. Uses an SD card for program loads and saves.
