Hey Paul,

I have decided to continue with the arduino running the ignition and fuel injection, with my boards and the secondary system,
having the arduino send the engine's data from sensors to the colormax on a two wire, and then the colormax will display
the engine data on some type of graphical data gauges.

The arduino gives me more versatility for running the engine, the colormax does not seem to handle it in a efficient manner.
However the arduino will not display the data in a efficient matter, it lags pretty bad generating graphics, however the

colormax does a fine job with 6 round analog style gauges graphically and pretty fast and smooth.

I wish something like the colormax was around to run C# or maybe python, but can not find such a single board pc.

Me too. I am hoping Mikroe will adopt a DOS. One can program their boards
in C, Basic and Pascal. All compilers.  Their hardware is second to none. One can get a very
powerful and fast ARM processor version. They have a color touch screen. Comes
with the board. Up to 384Kb of flash and 48K RAM.

If they put a MM style DOS on it program size would be limited only by the 64Gig
micro SD card.

Here is an ARM board I have. Mouser carries some of them.
They also ship at low cost from  Zagreb Croatia.

If everybody on here sent them an email telling them you want a Maximite
style DOS on board we might get it quicker. That would give a lot more
choices in VGA displays.

I visited them when I was at embedded world in 2014 and 2015. in Nurnberg.
