The OP (who has not answered any of our questions and is leaving us to 
argue among ourselves) wants to get into robotics.  You can't put an 
STK500 on a robot!  The STK500 has no debug capability.  Why would you 
advise him to pay $80 for a huge board with no debug capability when 
for $52 he can get a programmer / debugger that works with all the 
latest chips from Atmel, including debugWIRE?
