Default Re: MK14 Programming Interface

I agree that it would have been less confusing to have branded it the Raspberry Pico without the "pi".
A rookie marketing blunder, it can only lead to little Johnny or Mary asking for a "Raspberry Pi" like the ones they use at school only to be given a (cheaper) and incompatible Pico, which has 'Raspberry Pi' in the name.

Raspberry = Brand
Pi = Model, or model range.
Pico = An entirely different model, not a Pi at all.

This should have been pretty obvious to anyone. That said, I am looking for 'proper' jobs (like the uploader) for the undeniably powerful little Pico to do - once the programming environment catches up with the hardware.
