If we have more than 16K of flash and 500b  of RAM then it should be
doable. Note, though, that those are the *minimum* requirements for
the VM. We like having space for the bytecode and RAM for user
programs. So, if your simulated microcontroller has flexi-flash and
flexi-RAM, that would be doable.

In other words, the C interpreter is portable, and a port to the PIC
would be possible.

A very cool option, and something to think about.

Cheers,
