Anyone play with PIC microcontrollers in the T.C. area? I see that starting sometime in 2005 they have programmers that are USB 2.0 capable and they also have a few new processors that are also capable of experimenting with USB 2.0. I see there is a group called gnupic.org which are writing some com- pilers for the PIC, so that you have open source alternative. I'm on a limited budget, but have lots of time for awhile, so I'd like to GET IT RIGHT the first time (more likely the fourth time) as opposed to the more-expensive-sixteenth-time. Has anyone tried any of these? Thanks in advance. -- <<OVER-AND-OUT -- <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Start message here -- Party like it is 2006! --Prince will do this, I hope! .signature file contents: -- ##=====================## || SSS N N TTTTT || S.
