Yes, I'm using a 20x4 serial LCD (Scott Edwards) ... I picked up about a
dozen of these on E-Bay inexpensively. I like the ease of use.....

Rich,
     I decided not to use it because it is pretty crippled unless you
purchase it. I just don't have that kind of money. So I use C as much as
possible. I can manage to wade through C but ASM gives be a lot of trouble.
What are you using for an output device. LCD?
Thanks,
rich!
