Hello Adam, I have an STK-500 that all it was ever used for was to burn some hex for a few chips I was experimenting with. I did compile some Bascom code for a nixie design and it actually worked and then programmed an AVR chip for the clock...yippie!!... So that is where I am right now. So I do have the tools for AVR stuff but have not modified any code or written much. I really need to roll up my sleeves and just try some coding...I have done "Hello World" ...so there is some hope for me. I was checking on a little ARM MBED 1768 dev board from NXP and it also looked promising. There is a site called MBED that seems to have a nice toolset for beginners on embedded MCU's. I guess my theory is...if I learn on a more sophistated MCU perhaps that would be beneficial later on. It seems that it may be overkill but if I start on a platform that is more powerful and I decide later to do other things that seemed to be the most logical way to go. I welcome comments as this site has some experienced people that have been quite helpful. Regards Robert
