Chips: No just ADC, but something a bit complicated. I would like to enhance my "something-like-handheld-computer" it's a small system with MC68HC908AB32 (by Freescale) in core, 512KB NV RAM for data storage, 84*48 LCD display (salvaged from old nokia 3310), small keyboard (btw keyboard and display is connected thru PIC16F777, acting like converter from SPI to keyboard and LCD;it's a bit strange to use Freescale(Motorola) and Microchip product in one case, but I like it... ). It's only connection to outer world is RS232, but there is a problems with laptop (with no COM port, of course).
Btw I worked on this for about 2 years (and making it better, two years ago I started with 16F877 and 8KB SRAM; and just then, step by step I got into current state) and it's still not quite done, especially it's software could be done better, but I'm still working on it in my spare time... you may ask, what's the reason for doing something like this - for a such a long time, even when more perfect handheld computeras are available - it's just a hobby
Hope you understood my poor english...

Ok good luck!
What are you intending to build by the way? Seems to be a lot of folk here are wanting to use USB for ADC applications, myself included.

Chips: no, it isn't Picasso, it's my friend's son, 10 years
I don't want to continue in off-topic conversation, so it may be better to close it.
Also I don't want to start new VC++ thread, I'll rather try to make everything on my own, that's the way I do it for a long time.
Thank you for help.

Jarin: He he like the icon.. picasso isnt it ? 
Maybe should start a VC++ thread (messagey kind not the code kind) as this is probably the wrong place to be rambling on about C++ things.
Mat: Hello again and welcome back to your site 
For months you will be waking up with that creeping feeling you should be revising for something.
Cheers
