[sdiy] Logic Analyzers

[MTG]

"Cheap", "DIY" and such for tools is just going to keep you farther away 
for using a tool for what you want to use it for.  I understand folks 
with spare time and limited budgets may want to go that route, but it's 
not without it's heartaches.  I say get solid tools, standalone where 
possible.

Having said that, I have a LogicPort and have hardly ever used it for 
the type of protocol debugging that spawned this topic. I did however 
use it to reverse engineer a old Kawai ASIC so it's been worth it for me.
