Well, this is an opportunity for you all to have a good laugh. What is a PIC? Have been following this list for a few days, understand some of what's going on, but am missing the basics I guess. Earned my electronics Technician degree in "82" have been a mechanic ever since (more money) but have been tinkering as of lately with servo and stepper motor drivers, got turned onto this list by someone (?) and find some of the info useful. I'll try not to burden you with questions that are too simple if I can find the info elsewhere on the web. :o) Anyway it's been interesting, Tracey
