Funny that you mention that, Walter...

A few weekends ago I was cleaning out the cabinet where I keep most of 
my archive media. I ran across 5-1/4" floppy distribution disks for 
C6805 and MPC. They all were V1.x, including a V1.0 disk for MPC.

It made me realize we are getting old ;-)

I first used a PIC back when they were still a General Instruments part 
too. We used them to control some communications hardware in medical 
devices. We used a lot of NMOS NSC COP400 4-bitters in consumer
electronics as well. Good training for future PIC work as the
architectures are very similar.
