The other point I find is that the Philips originated items (those with a PM model number) don't suit my mental gymnastics in working out how to operate them. These seem to be designed in the European plant. The models that seem to be American designed suit me much better. I find this occurs with other instruments of European origin as well. There is a definite difference in the thinking pattern required to drive the European designed stuff I find. This is NOT a critiscm of any Europeans, members or non-members of this list, just a personal observation that I find. Others may well find that they have no problems in this area. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
