O/S and the Stamp

Archiver

Wondering if the Basic Stamp Can be Joined With the WindowsCE Operating
System, or if there are Operating Systems Built around the Basic Stamp.

Some sort of Custom O.S

You can establish a serial link between any operating system and the
BASIC Stamp; this happens quite frequently. Both sides need to agree on
baud rate and protocol, beyong that it's pretty simple.

The BS2 contains its own pseudo-OS in the form
of its run-time code. As mentioned earlier, you
can easily interface its RS-232 port with a
larger platform -- in Files, AlDemo\BS2_VBDemo.zip
I have a complete small demo which does this
for the PC using Visual Basic 6.

You can easily do the same for WinCE, I assume.

The BS2 is such a small beast, it's really good
for doing small microprocessor interface things.
A full disk-based operating system for it would
be way overkill.
