A Basic Stamp is a PIC microcontroller on a little board with a crystal,
voltage regulator, and some I/O stuff.  Rather than programming it in
more-arcane-than-most-assemblers PIC assembly you program it in basic. 
You have access to all the A/D, I/O lines, etc.  Parallax makes them,
here's some info:
