What is the track record of this company for long-term availability?

Companies often want to improve their products. That is nice if you want
to use that new product, but what will they to the next year? There is
always room for more improvement. Will they still sell the older, less
perfect, chips? At what price, minimum quantity, lead time?

I think we all agree that the 14-bit PIC core is a rediculous, stupid,
arcane, bizarre architecture. Yet Mirochip still sells it! In some sense
(see above) this is reassuring!
