<DIV>Which program crashes? Which version are you using? You will get a lot of
data, from 6 sensors, Pduino/Firmata will read them all every 20ms. I have never
seen a crash using [arduino], except when I unplug the arduino when Pd is
connected to it, so I suspect the problem lies elsewhere. </DIV>

<DIV>Looking at things from a more basic level, you can come up with a more
direct solution... It may sound small in theory, but it in practice, it can
change entire economies.<SPAN class=Apple-converted-space> </SPAN>- Amy
