LOL. Yeah, well the HC11 is a higher league than the 
16, probably more comparable to the 18x. I thought 
they'd be worse, but that's a LOT worse! hahaha.

Absolutely. They're great for serial communications 
too, what i think is their strongest suit. 
In reality memory is cheap, it's speed that's 
expensive, so if you can make a lookup table, in most 
cases its more foolproof and cost effective as well as 
being faster. Do all the math at your leisure and then 
plug all the numbers in pre-calculated. The glaring 
downfalls being the size and lack of flexibility.
