Hope I have this categorized right:)  If not, do let me know.  I have
the Olimex PG4 board, with a PIC16F84A.  I'm aware that the olimex
board uses the serial port for power, and it will not work with a USB
to serial adapter.  Unfortunately, I don't have a serial port on this
computer.  Is it possible to power the olimex board off of a 9v
adapter while programming?  Or can that only be used while the chip is
running?
