[sdiy] PIC / Atmel Programmers (as long as were on the subject)

[Mark Morton]

This is my first post so be gentle :)
I was wondering if any one's got some links for a diy AVR programmer,
I've got a pretty well stocked junk box and if I can strap one together
myself why not... Oh I'd like to use AVR Studio too, thanks

But still... you get free drivers for windows, linux, mac, bsd and
windows 
cd drivers for it for free... so if you want a product for more than 1 
platform, I still think it's the best chip. especially if you think as 
me... use time on the hardware, and/or the software... and save a lot of

time in not having to invent the wheel again...

cheers,
