Hi, Adlam,

Thank you for sharing, it was very timely.
I just bought a PIC kit and a book by
"Programming & Customizing PICmicro Microcontrollers, 2nd Edition by
Michael Predko".

Totally new in PIC hardware or software.
This first book was very well written and structured.
A bit too heavy for a newbies. Waiting for PIC'n from sq-1, hope it will
break the ice.

Thanks again.
