Heh, iv always been one to use notepad and compile with command line apps, I
might give that a shot. Might be difficult to start with tho, I'ts a while
since I done any programming! And iv never programmed for a microchip!

Naw, im hoping to use it mainly as hobby work. My first project is an

all just fun really!! J
