Thanks. I had a look in "Readme for PICSTART Plus.txt" and
the 628 (whether that's 628 and 628A it doesn't say) is covered
by a note about f/w 2.30 or greater. My PS+ is also 3.11, in a
windowed C44, which I figured would be more economical than
OTPs so I guess I could upgrade if 4.10 isn't going to cause
problems with the other PICs and projects I have ongoing. I have
to say I'm a little reluctant to upgrade after experiencing FUBBs
with MPLAB and silicon. But I can always go back a step if it
doesn't work out. Hopefully that won't be the case and I'll not be
stuck with tubes of 628A
