Good "newbie" article on using the Propeller

I stumbled across this page and was very impressed with the write up from forum user Gadgetoid. It documents pros, cons, challenges, praises, etc very well in an easy to read format. It's also good feedback for Parallax on a few things that other people thinking of trying the Propeller should be aware of upfront.

    Nice find Andrew.

    (Note that it's a little dated, and I'm sure improvements have been done.)

    Very good writeup, not sure, I guess it is only online exposure. It sounds like there will be other installments, going to search later for that.

    I especially liked this paragraph:


    Parallax have nailed the latter; their forums are a vibrant and bustling hive of Propeller and BASIC Stamp veterans, all eager to share their passion for the devices. Even Parallax’s own engineers drop in from time to time, how often does Joe-maker get to talk to chip designers at Atmel?

    Atmel engineers are often to be found on the Atmel AVR Freaks forum.
