> - 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

But if you have everything already done for you do you learn the
basics?
