I don't know about that. I think I'll need to clone myself soon. I'm
glad my missus is an understanding person or I'd be divorced by now.

PS

It figures, I had to add some house keeping to the Windows software and
now it takes about 10 seconds to program a 74. Thats with max 25
programming pulses and 3 X N over programming enabled. Still, I suppose
for a serial port it's not too bad.

I just did a rough read routine and it does it in about 5 secs, so the
programmer should be able to do an upper-normal-lower voltage
program/verify in about 20 secs for a 4K part.

Actually, mucking around with the serial port and communicating between
a PIC and Windows, gave me an idea for a bit of experimenters
software.....
