Try the new version of the in circuit programmer, the AVRISP mkII.  It's 
about 35 bucks and uses a USB interface.  If you can find an older 
version of the serial interface AVRISP, they work quite well with a 
USB/Serial adapter.

Problem with the ISPs is if you have a brain fart and program your fuses 
incorrectly, thereby locking yourself out of the chip, you might have a 
problem re-programming your controller.  It might be a good idea to have 
some extra chips on hand while you're first getting started.
