Well man, pls read my reply to the post. I didn't know people in this forum could be so judgmental. Judging me by my words without asking me what they mean...now what could you call that?

You told us ... "Please don't ask me how I did it,"
I don't know how you could have done it legaly, so I have no other choice but to assume it wasn't.

Well, I double-dawg dare you to give me or others a feasible, reasonable, logical, and legal explanation as to how you 'got the code compiled using PBP 2.46' and 'became more resourceful in finding ways to compile my program (hehehe)' when you stated and provided proof that you had PBP 2.03 (legally or not) and didn't have the means or funds to acquire a more recent version, or at least (with validating receipt or other suitable proof-of-purchase paperwork) the much cheaper upgrade.

Hacking is not the only avaliable resource in this planet. Friends are too. It was evident for me that my problem would degrade down to hopelessness if I wouldn't do something else other than what you suggested. so what I did was call up a classmate and asked for help and then he said he'd call back and then he did call back. He said that he knew somebody, a Computer Engineering graduate who has the compiler who would gladly compile the code for me because they were also friends. I could call that human resource and tapping human resource anywhere available is being resourceful. That dude who did the compiling for me is not an Assistant Admin so he did not worry about 100 requests a day. I am sorry for having been misunderstood. This explanation is already very long that is why I told you guys not to ask me how I did it because I do not want to bother anyone to read such a long statement which I feel is already out of the original topic of the thread I started. Thank You.

Oooo, nice save!
Moving from a pirated copy of PBP, to .Hex files compiled by legal owners is definately a step up up in the world.

Did I satisfy the inquisitive? I hope so because I'd like to move on. I would really like to learn and I am driven. I would like to know how to connect a microphone to 16F84(A)... I want to build a robot who could hear though speech recognition is still out of the topic for the moment. If I could still be guaranteed of any help, then I would gladly start another thread regrading this matter. Thanks you.

oh don be so cold to someone who decide to learn such scary topic as electronics and PICs. As i see electronics noway is really rare hobby so we should help as we can, or there is no much future without science. And $300 for PBP + programmer 75$ + books $100 and some tools + $50 is really not cheap especially for student. Im not saying that piracy is right but it may be understandable. And PBP is really great so I believe most who try it and stick with it will pay for it to show their thanks to developers who create such great thing.

WOW !!!!
I thought Sir Clive Sinclair was being a bit optimistic when he said a ZX81 could control a Nuclear Power Station. LOL

He (she?) wants to build a robot but doesn't have the means for the PBP upgrade.
What's wrong with this picture? I see priorities that are all sorts of wrong.
People like this are the reason I (and many others) paid $250 for my PBP insteadf of $100 or whatever...WTF...
