2. I occasionally purchase them? (but to be honset it is very rare that I do buy kits nowa days)

6. I only buy KITs if they do something that I want?

10.I prefer KITs that involve digital stuff, like PICs?

13.I don't mind KITs that have single sided PCB's?

17.I refuse to buy a KIT if I can go and buy it cheaper already made?
17A. I resufe to buy a hit if i can make it cheaper myself

21.I prefer to buy them in a shop?

There's my answers.

I like designing my own PCB'S and building them up this way you have a better understanding how they work, I have searched the internet high and low for projects found lot's of them some useful and some not so useful. At the end of the day it all depends on what type of kits that are on offer and how interesting they are and the most important thing is if you need itand have a use for it . I have also found plenty of projects that come with source code this is also good becuase you can modify the code to suit your own needs or use chunks of the code in your own applications. This of coarse is only the case if they are free on the internet has I know if you was to put the source code included in the kit you woudl never sell very many of them

Also I take the view that If you have brought picbasic pro or PDS then the idea you design your own projects that siuts your needs

chuck
