    I must be even weirder- I live and breathe "quality debugging" [noparse]:)[/noparse]
    And have been completely heads down with 12blocks and propscope- very excited about both!

    This is a very good review, and Norris is quite a clever fellow so it comes from a reputable source. Until the final paragraph. I was surprised to read

    In addition, Parallax, the developers of ViewPort, ...

    In fact, I don't see Hanno referenced at all. Is this part of the deal with Parallax?

    Cheers!

    Yes, great review- I have it up on my wall [noparse]:)[/noparse] Kudos to Norris for taking the time to really understand my product- in today's age of "printing press releases" you rarely see this level of dedication- he really gets it.

    No one's perfect- the "Parallax, the developers of ViewPort" sentence is a mistake. It does lend more credibility to ViewPort that a big "company" developed it- not just a bloke from New Zealand...

    I'll keep plugging away at ViewPort for a while yet- lots of great things coming soon!

    Hanno,



    Since Viewport - PropScope ver. will be shipping w/the PropScopes I'm assuming it is ready for release. Being as such, a pre·hardware software release·would probably be excitedly received by the future owners,·potential owners and drooling wish-they-were owners.

    I will be getting one the first day they ship and would be very stoked to have everything ready to go·when the goods arrive. It is usually·frustrating to have to do installation and software·acquaintance when you really just wanna play w/the hardware. I don't know if it's possible, but if it is...

    So, run it up the flagpole and get us that software!· jumpin.gifjumpin.gifjumpin.gif

    Well, at least now we all know that the KISS debugger is not the only thing out there [noparse]:)[/noparse]

    I hope that article translates into lots of sales for you Hanno. Cheers.

    The Propeller started with no debuggers- but thanks to this community there are now many to choose from- great job everyone! I'm sure that everyone who has something Propeller related will get more sales with additional press exposure for the Propeller "a rising tide floats all boats". So, let's keep collaborating on making the Propeller accessible to more people- that will help all of us!
