Check out Bascom AVR from MCS Electronics if you like something similar to Qbasic. If you want C, grab WinAVR, both are free.
The ATTINY2313 is a great chip, low cost, easy to get in both DIP and SMT packages and it has WAAAAAAAAAY more than enough power for any Nixie clock. Any number of different AVR ISP programming circuits are available, I recommend one compatible with the STK500 protocol so that it works seamlessly with AVR Studio. If you do decide to go with the AVR, there's the AVR Freaks discussion board with a lot of active users. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
