Well, we'll just have to see how long it takes before I drive you all crazy then!

I originally was just going to program a chip with a bit of code that someone else made, but decided it wasn't going to do exactly what I wanted so I want to make the new and improved version. I have only the HEX code and the ASM code so it doesn't really do me much good to see what he did and make changes.

So, I had bought a little programmer board from somewhere else before finding this board. I don't think that matters. The board can program any of the chips I'm interested in and I can breadboard and experiment with what I do have. I'm sure I will be making blinking lights before anything else even if it is only one.

I don't mind the learning either so long as I'm not still trying to do this 3 months from now with no result. I can't help but wonder if we're talking about two different manuals though since the one I'm looking at doesn't do a lot of explaining and either I am really slow or the manual is short of explaination at a level I need. I'm probably slow!
