I would be very happy to provide PIC chips and programming service to anybody in the continental USA. How about we do this for $10.00 shipped for the first chip, and $2.50 per chip after that.
Email me privately ([email protected]) if you're interested. I'll stop taking names next Tuesday (13th) and place an order for the chips and get them shipped out within a week of receiving them. I'm happy to take paypal or personal check, or even cash. -Bob, N3XKB On Wed, Jul 7, 2010 at 9:56 AM, Thomas A.
