I have had users contact me regarding the MicroChip site being down. http://www.microchip.com/ isn't responding, well not from OZ at least, when everything else looks normal. I wouldn't normally be concerned about it, but it's been about 13 hours now since I got the first report. I also just got news that the original Australian Microchip distibutor Hartec, has discontinued their sales arrangement with MicroChip. Perhaps someone from MicroChip would like to confirm this for me please. Don McKenzie don@dontronics.com http://www.dontronics.com Send a blank message to help@dontronics.com for more info.
