There's a power failure in our area this morning, so what to do... Hey, let's take the staff out for breakfast! So since the phones are down, the server is down, the lights are out, and there's a sticky-note on the front door saying as much, we're not open. Not for another hour or two, anyways.

PICAXE is dead! Long live PICAXE!

Well we hate to break it to you, but the PICAXE-40X1 has kicked the bucket. Shuffled off the mortal coil.  Wacked, given up the ghost, became living-challenged, croaked, sprouted wings, snuffed out. "IT'S NOT DEAD! JUST PINING FOR THE FJORDS!" Well, that's not the case. But is does (did?) have beautiful plumage. But that's okay […]
