Couldn't CPU speed pose a problem for an earlier release of MPLAB?

If some folks are running an outdated version, any fixes incorporated to
handle fast CPUs may not be present.

As I recall, MPLAB was written with a 16-bit Borland product (Borland C?).
Borland's Turbo Pascal has a known problem in its system unit on faster
Pentiums. (It has to do with an overflow in the timer code.)

Updating to the latest MPLAB version may be one possible solution for people
encountering problems running it on faster machines.
