PureBasic Forums - English

A friend and I were thinking of playing with one of these (At our age yet!!) and he asked me "does it allow for control of the IO pins?" with PB.

Anyone got a simple install for an old dummy like me and knows the answer to the above question? I'll be going to the current one with plenty of memory and storage to save me lots of trouble:) (And he has plenty of money that his wife hasn't spent yet)

I might just be biting off more than I can chew but hell, I have to do do something in this freezing cold.
