Correct. I have a programmer with a ZIF socket (for programming chips
with WLoader), but it also has a connector for ICSP. After some
frustration with the 18f452 chip in the socket I switched to a 16f242
(28 pin, does not fit in socket, so using the ICSP connector). Did not
work either, so disconnect and put a 16f877 in the socket (for
comparison). Worked flawlessly, so back to the 16242 (*oops* forgot to
remove the 16f877!). The ID that I read was the AND of the IDs of both
chips, which confirms theory that pull-down is stronger than pull-up.

Now why do those damn 16F87xA's refuse to oscillate?
