Yes, microcontrollers are electronic devices, but the discussion of them has generated so much traffic that they have their own group.
Should we discuss electronics on the Physics group?

I would disagree with everyone who thinks PIC discussions doesn't belong to
this group either. I think we're beyond the times where you could do
everything with discrete components. These days microcontrollers belong as
much to Basic Electronics as a transistor and a diode.

You'd get a better answer on the PIC group.

Sorry for this newbie question, but I'm really interested:
Can some tell me what a PIC is, and what it does, and what the
differences
between the PIC17 and 18?
Thanks...

Must agree, 18 is way better than 17. Hopefully soon they'll get all
their parts out in flash versions. Have you thought about using the
dsPIC, when it comes out, to something ? I'm very excited about that
part. Price wise, its very close to the PIC18-family. However, its 16
bit and much faster.
From what I have read about the dsPIC it sounds impressive. However at
present time I think I will have little use for it at work. But I might
play around with it at home some when it come out, just for fun.
