AVR board turned up last week. PCB-jumper connectors and breadboard today.
I believe my soldering-iron is about thirty years old. New-fangled solder smells about the same as the old stuff and I still appear to be able to make things stick together without melting.
Of course I've lost my old breadboard, medium box of useful components, spare set of 'scope probes, Interfaker... On the other hand, a PC wiring-loom can be harvested to provide a variety of useful connectors with lengths of wire attached.
I really do need the Interfaker though. Unless the demo code talks to a PC. I think perhaps it does.
