Urc Msc400

Regardless of some newly formed opinions of URC, their newest product, the MSC400 looks like it is going to be a nice piece. Just got the software today and looked through it. Lots of cool things to play with. And when the MX3500 comes out, that combo will be a winner. Even though it is only one-way serial, you get 12 ports, voltage and video triggers. All the commands are stored in the MSC, so its more like RTI's setup where you send a button press to the base, and it initiates all the commands. MUCH more reliable that way. Anyway...just my thoughts. I dont want this to turn into another anti-URC thread, so those with worthwhile opinions or experiences with the MSC please post here.

Thought I would bump this and ask a question too.

Are they difficult to program as a DIYer? I really like the idea of controlling my components through RS232.
