I picked up a copy of Lucio di Jasio's book for the PIC32's and have read through it a bit. From my past work with some C on 68K's, I already have an idea if the general code structure I'll need. Unfortunately I'm working a 12 hr day today so I may not be up for much when I get home. However, I have 2.5 weeks to get a decent coding platform up and running and define my uC for whichever IDE I choose to use. The PIC32 isn't explicitly defined in many packages so we'll see how it goes. May not hear from me until I have 'Hello HackaDay' outputting on 3 displays and actively refreshing, so it could be a little while.
