According to FIRST last year, we received an MPLAB IDE that was not officially released yet, and we were getting it for free where other people had to pay. Well, that's not the case I have found. MPLAB IDE is actually free! Yes folks, you heard me right. FREE!!

2 versions are available, Innovation FIRST, Inc. recommends 7.20 as the 7.22 version has some bugs in which the default code will not build?
Well, now I know I can get updated MPLAB IDEs without waiting until the CD comes with our kit
