			====Technical Note Regarding Fuse Settings====
			According to the ATMega8/8L's [http://www.atmel.com/images/atmel-2486-8-bit-avr-microcontroller-atmega8_l_datasheet.pdf datasheet] (Table 10. Pg 30,) enabling the "Brown Out Detection" (BOD) bit is recommended when using the internal 8Mhz oscillator at minimum startup time. The recommended lfuse setting is 0x84 (BOD enabled.)

	It should be noted that a blank Atmel chip cannot be programmed fully by the DOL Flashing Utility, however, as the .DOL will not program the 'fuses' of the Atmel chip. This means that the initial programming must be done via a PC-style programmer.
