I didn't say it would be easy. But when timer 1 is located in the  
same place across all the product that has a timer 1 of similar  
characteristics, then that part of the code doesn't have to be relinked.

Or you could use a Microchip PIC where seemingly every model has a  
different memory map, word size, and instruction set.
