I have the google toolbar installed (it blocks popups). I have always found
the google toolbars "search this site" feature to be better than the
microchip search. Even though the microchip searchis run by google. How odd
is that!? Besides, google is always up.

I tried looking at their new e-store, but it seems to be down. Yesterday, it
appeared that the main Microchip site was down for a little while at least
once.  Actually, I suspect that there are bigger problems with the internet
right now.  DNS server problems would make it seem like some sites are down
temporarily.

I hadn't received any messages from the piclist after about 5:00 am today.
The weird thing is that I was able to communicate with the listserv software
and have it tell me that everything was ok as far as my MAIL settings were
concerned.  Then about 1:30 pm, a bunch of messages showed up.  I suspect
that I've missed many messages, but I am not sure yet.  Anyone else have any
problems today?
