Hello, PICLISTER's.  Yes, the factory is actually listening.  We have
     been duly monitoring the various conversation threads looking for your
     great ideas for improvements to our products, etc.

     On Friday, I asked if a moderator was present.  We absolutely do not
     intend to pollute the list with marketing type stuff.  We maintain a
     BBS for that.  Other than some very specific items, we will rarely
     post here.  We also won't be doing customer support here either.

     By the way, it is my job to specify the new PIC devices.  So, if
     there's a PIC you want....

     Regards, Brian Boles.                         bboles@microchip.com
