I am getting ready to program my '877 for the first time. I get the impression that I do not need to connect the timing crystal circuit, just RB3, RB6 and RB7.  Is hooking up the crystal one of those "givens" like hooking up the power - so obvious that you don't need to mention it?  Or is the crystal not needed because the RB6 (clock) is supplying the timing?</BLOCKQUOTE>
