Currently I use microchip pics but I'm looking possibly to switch, but
what? Is Atmel worth it? What about TI? I'm looking for something
similar to microchip but more of a commercial aspect. I have never seen
any commercial device that uses a pic and I assume there are reasons for
this? It seems that pic's are only for hobbiests so using them in a
commercial product is a no-no?


People use what they are comfortable with or what they are told to use.
