Hi Paul,

Thanks for the quick response. Your answer was pretty much what I was 
expecting. One of the reasons I'm interested in the set-up is the 
Tasking library CTL that comes with it.

Is there any documentation about CTL that I can look at to gauge it's 
capability? My other choice is FreeRTOS.

Cheers,

Peter.
