    Default Trade Mark Issues

    Due to ongoing issues with Microchip Inc, we have moved the URL of the forum and web site to www.protonbasic.co.uk

    www.picbasic.org will continue to work for the near term, whilst the move to protonbasic.co.uk is completed.

    Please ensure that wherever possible you refer to Microchip Inc products and services by their correct names and make correct reference to their trade marks.

    Please visit and read the information at the following URL: http://www.microchip.com/stellent/id...param=en025912

    NOTE:
    Use trademarks as adjectives followed by appropriate descriptors (nouns):
    <table bordercolor="#808080" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody><tr> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="72">Right:
    </td> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="450">Use a PIC® microcontroller in your next design.
    </td></tr> <tr> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="72">Wrong:
    </td> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="450">Use a PIC in your next design.
    </td></tr></tbody></table>
    Do NOT use trademarks in the possessive form.
    <table bordercolor="#808080" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody><tr> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="72">Right:
    </td> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="450">Compare the features of PIC® microcontrollers to other microcontrollers.
    </td></tr> <tr> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="72">Wrong:
    </td> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="450">Compare PIC’s features to other microcontrollers.
    </td></tr></tbody></table>
    Do NOT use trademarks in the plural form.
    <table bordercolor="#808080" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="72">Right:
    </td> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="450">Compare all PIC® microcontrollers to other microcontrollers.
    </td></tr> <tr> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="72">Wrong:
    </td> <td bordercolor="#808080" valign="top" width="450">Compare all PICs to other microcontrollers.

    The owners of this web site make no appololgies for the inconvenience caused to its users by Microchip Technology Inc 's pedantic enforcement of its trade marks terms.
