Hi Guys

I tend to use Parallax propeller chips and SX48 chips.

Take a look at parallax.com, the propeller has 8 cpu cores, programmed in spin which resembles basic (asm can also be used), it's an object orientated language and the chips has a lot of features, loads of i/o pins, built in support for tv out, VGA, keyboard, mouse etc.

Very handy for debugging when you can see all of your variables on a pc monitor, also they are not that expensive.

I have tried pic's, picaxes, arduino, Atmel AVR, Basic Stamp, OOpic, Ubicom SX and the propeller is still my favourite.  ALthough I do still use picaxes for my fathers model railway stuff.
