My situation is that I do everything in PBasic (for the Basic Stamp) or
PowerBasic (for the PC) with an ocasional dive into a short loop using
inline assembler when PB doesn't do exactly what I want.  All of this
is professional (programming robotics and CD/DVD palyers) with no limit
on money spent on hardware or software.  Would you still recomend TASM
for my situation?
