That seems to confirm my previous suggestion - once downloaded the file is
in your cache and a reload simply requires a files transfer from cache to
where-ever you are putting it. This suggests that the fast loading Microchip
files have already been downloaded recently. Maybe your short term memory
(as opposed to your PC's is getting to be like mine :-)
