Basic MEGA pins question

retrolefty:

Thank you Lefty! I should be alright with 56+16. Just be sure, the 16 analog pins can be used as digital pins, right?

Yes
What about the serial pins? Can I use serial ports 1-3 pins without getting into trouble?

Yes, actually less troublesome then serial 0 as there is no USB serial converter wired to those pins.

Thanks again. I may want to remove the instantiation of the serials 1-3 to save some 192 bytes of SRAM since I'm not using them.
