Still haven't hooked up with the other three PICListers. Tony, Edson, 
Spehro -- where are you? :)

>From what I can tell, fewer people are attending this year. At the Keynote 
Address, there were many empty seats. Steve Sanghi's speech was punctuated 
by humor. He said that he was going to break with tradition and not show the 
sales graphs and figures for this year ("because they are down"), expressed 
surprise at the fact that there are many types of DC motors, and asked the 
audience "how many software engineers does it take to change a light bulb?"

In other news, Microchip discontinued its free samples program due to its 
abuse, although regular customers and MASTERs attendees can still get them 
for free. XLP is the new ultra-low-power technology from Microchip and, 
according to Sanghi, can be used as a verb. "To XLP something" means to 
greatly reduce its power consumption.
