Hmm, I can see using another MCU as the DebugProbe is quite popular, will try that in a free moment, but I was thinking more about single-USB-connection stuff as I have many many boards attached to a single BSD machine over 2x 16-port USB hubs and so every port counts as separate board :-) -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
