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 (rdarlington at gmail.com) 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.
