I remember playing with a Serial Basic Stamp Microcontroler a fre years ago, This allowed me to control a Servo and a few LED Lights via a VB Application on my PC. The same companny also creates a USB Basic Stamp (Board of Education USB). Does anyone have any input if this may be a possable starting place for a Chumby Hardware Platform before I buy one?
