[sdiy] PIC / Atmel Programmers

[Neil Johnson]

Tim,

Many microcontrollers are now in-system programmable (ISP), usually just
needing a simple parallel-port dongle to connect to a few pins on the
micro.  If you can make it yourself then you could save yourself the $100.

Do a google to find out about ISP for PICs and AVRs.
