chippie,
Chippie posted somewhere in this forum a programmer without power supplies, and I'm using it. It works good. and i use icprog
spyghost,
Will picpro work with icprog? If so, it's perfect. is picpro a universal programmer? and how many mc that it can program? the pcb online, is this standard or gold product?
nigel,
about picprog40 of nigel, will it work on win xp? I see they said it has some problems with xp.
people,
labtool 48 is good, but it cannot program for some pics such as 16f72 ... but it also have some problems with xp, try with labtool48xp but it's so expensive. laptool48 is a universal programmer.
I found that, if a programmer work with COM port, there is no problem to version of windows, but with parallel, perhaps, we need "latest versions".
