Like a memory map that looks like Swiss cheese for the Pic? :-)
And if it were made of Swiss cheese would not be enough for a mouse.

Lets see 16F876 vs a Mega88...they both run at 20MHz...except that
the PIC has a div by 4 in the clock cct.

Pic has <400bytes of fragmented ram, the m88 has 1K of linear ram.

Pic from $7-$9 At Digikey for a pdip, m88 at about half that....

I think I would stick with a M88, but I'm biased :-)
