Hi, I've come late to this thread and I'm not a programmer, however I do program. For small jobs I like the Microchip PIC range, cheap or free development tools, see the PicKit2 (they also do a nice serial (232, I2C SPI) debugger in the same format). Lots of pepole doing boards, but Microchip's own boards are cheap enough. For higher end stuff look at the Freescale ColdFire (Motorola 68K) stuff by Netburner. complete development package fot $99 (you don't HAVE to use the network bits). Robert G8RPI.

The book looks fine but it appears that most of the projects are based on the Arduino line of microcontroller modules and they use the processing/wiring language. I am not crazy about learning another language or using an IDE that shields me from details I ought to know. I can program reasonably well in Python and I can get by with PHP and C. I use Linux and am comfortable with it. Is anyone out there using a similar product that can be programmed in Python, PHP, C or another common language?
