Greetings!
I don't think there's any development software to run on WinCE, if
that's what you mean.
Alternatively, it IS possible to connect a BS to a WinCE machine with a
suitable cable and have them communicate with each other to exchange
data, but you will need to write the software to run om them.
(I believe there are several Basic variants to be downloaded and
installed on WinCE machines, so it shouldn't be too difficult.)
The Basic Stamps can be considered to run their own proprietary Embedded
OS.
It does not have the space or procesing power to run any other OS'es, at
least not without erasing the chip completely(and removing the Parallax
Basic interpreter) and downloading new software, but then you'd be
better off buying blank chips and a programmer.
(It'll be cheaper in the long run, besides, I'm not certain if it IS
possibe to totally reprogram the chip unless you desolder it from the
PCB)
:-)

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
