One of the good things about being a "Nominal Engineer" is that people sometimes send you things for free hoping that you'll spec their stuff in actual products. Such is the case with my new AVR Butterfly Demonstration board. I'm excited about this. I can't say how long I've been looking for an excuse to buy a PIC programmer and begin dabbling in microcontrollers. All this thing needs is a free serial port. Now what excuse do I have? Oh yeah, the hard drive on my computer is hosed. Well the board is still pretty swell.
