If SPIN seems tricky then try PropC. That fits in with C/Java/JavaScript family. There aren't as many objects in the OBEX, but I've found plenty of examples in Learn/Parallax and on the fora.
Philosophically, it has always been hard to move to a new platform, language or curriculum. But usually it is to something more powerful and that opens up better solutions for projects. So once over the hump, the transition is worth the effort.
For close to two decades now, I have been writing programs for the Basic Stamps.
There's your problem, right there. Doing the same thing for two decades isn't healthy for you or Parallax.
Try Spin or C or Forth and keep trying until you understand it. Don't try to get too fancy in your early attempts. It will get easier and when you do 'get it' the experience will be a satisfying one.
No company can survive without upgrading its product line. Progress, though sometimes difficult, is necessary.

Or copied to the P2 forum and the few posts related to the original question removed. Less work that way.

Why would you want the original question to be removed? The OP should have his questions answered without P2 interference being introduced.

Moderators will remove anything not a direct comment to the OP, or in response to his remarks.
