Yes, that's correct. We created the first 3rd party PIC Programmer, but we did
not invent PICs.

Marty is correct to announce that our new web site has been launched.
Check it out and email us with any feedback.

    Maybe I am just a 'problem child' but when I view the site with
    Netscape 4.79, which isn't that old, the page display's very
    different than with I.E. 5.00. There is no background color, the
    NEWS paragraph is screen width and the PRODUCTS box is on the right
    hand side instead of the left as with IE. I like the overall site
    layout but you may want to ensure that it looks the way you want
    with "most" browsers.

    Phil, you might just be a 'problem child' [noparse];)[/noparse]

    I had a quick look at the site in (Windows); IE6-SP1 and Mozilla 1.3a
    (last nights build), and the site looked exactly the same in both, and
    after all the new Netscape is based on the Mozilla engine (I think), so
    maybe try upgrading your browser.

    As for the background colour, there is one?? I noticed a little light
    blue on the left and the purple on the menu bar, but I can't see any
    dominant background colour, (most of the page is white to me).


    Cheers
