 		 #175585 - an example of migrating to a newer forum
Responding to: ???'s previous message
as a warning to those that believe that 'going outside' is a good idea.

fortunately SILabs did not upgrade the 'classical' link http://www.cygnal.org/scripts/U...tion=intro but only the "post buyout" link http://www.silabs.com/support/f...fault.aspx

This illustrates the results of leaving 'upgrading' to outsiders

please follow a bit of a thread in both formats to see the real horror of the "new and improved" format.

An e-mail to SILabs was answered "beyond our control"
