In case you care about your intellectual property of the basic code: if you sell your hrdware product, the
basic code is not recoverable from the basic stamp (to you this means: backup).
If you just intend to sell the software, it is possible to tokenize the pbasic code in advance
and distribute the downloadable object code only.
You may in fact, as others have done, create commercial products with BASIC Stamp microcontrollers. That is the reason we created the OEM chip sets: to reduce the manufacturing costs for products that would like to have an embedded BASIC Stamp. Before joining Parallax I designed a successful alarm product for my employer that is still being sold today.

Does Parallax sell surface mount versions of the OEM kits?
