Saturday was a fun "workshop."  It was nice to be able
to work without the family interruptions.

I discovered that the P-4 programming interface can
also be used for serial i/o and used to display output
using hyperterm.

Since I'm into 1-wire weather station stuff, I took a
1-wire temp sensor(DS18B20); and using PHAnderson's
routines, had it displaying the temperature on the
laptop in degrees F and blinking a LED whenever the
temp is sampled.

I forgot how much "fun" doing decimal math with
integers can be:-(

This Bare Bones Board is truly a powerful processor
and a lot of fun to work with.

Rich, you mentioned several web sites.  I found a
bunch, but would you (and anyone else) mind listing
the ones you thought helpful
