Threading??

I am working on a project and have not programmed in BASIC, nor
PBASIC for quite a few years. Is it possible to have threads running
on these microcontrollers? If so, it would be very beneficial for
the data acquistion that I have to do.

    Not on the basic stamp... the Javelin stamp might be able to do what
    you need.. It depends on what you need to do.

    There is no threading on the BASIC Stamp and those products (in the same
    catagory) that claim multi-tasking are stretching the truth in my opinion.

    The Javelin is single-threaded, but can run background processes like PWM,
    serial, etc.
