PICMAN.
Luciano has already given a good description of USB.
There is one thing I would like to point out.
Regardless what type of Laptop you are planning to use,
it will provide a voltage of 5V at the USB port,
(no less, no more)
the only difference will be in current the port can provide.
minimum usually is about 100mA, standard is about 500mA. Some ports provide even more.
My experience is the PIC-MCP-USB runs even off a 100mA port.

Hi guys, if you are looking for a cheap PIC programmer, you can visit here: http://www.etekronics.com/product_in...a483e51450b518
This programmer seems a modified version of K149.

It uses the USB Port as the power source but works through the serial port of the PC.Originally Posted by PIC-User
The programmer will work only if the computer has a serial port AND a USB port.
