Hey Eric...

Yes, it'd be great to put together a learning system that way, IF the person
had the skill and determination to pull it off. This very scenario is why I
suggested (back on Sunday I think) that a good way to go would be to pick up
a 68HC11 Evaluation Board (EVBU or EVM). My EVBU (which is currently built
into a little robot) already HAS:
- serial port
- monitor & assembler/disassembler program (Buffalo)
- 1k EEPROM
- wire wrap area
- real-time clock
- assembler & download software
- five ports:
  A - pulse counters or general I/O
  B - parallel output or address selection if using ext. RAM/ROM
  C - parallel I/O or address/data port if using ext. RAM/ROM
  D - two comm ports or general I/O
  E - eight analog inputs or general inputs
