Bob,

I'm not sure how you figured this, but you can get the our ProPAK
that includes the PIC-1 AT programmer w/ZIF, a 40/28 pin adapter, a
PIC16F84, software, cables and power supply for $109.  Optionally you
can get the PICnGo package that has everything listed above except
the 40/28 pin adapter for $75.  A user can easily wire their own
adapter.  Or you can get just the programmer as a kit for $39.

I wish you would take some care to get your facts straight before
bashing us.

Chris
