Andy, that is a nice touch. I'm overdue to check in with Carl and see
what's new. I've run several 12C509 devices with the Parallax/Carmacon
programmer but I'm still waiting for TDE to update CVASM to support the
12C67x devices. It looks like CVASM was updated from an ad I saw but I
could'nt find anything on their web site. I ordered the CD but that was
over a month ago...
