Well, it didn't get here today, maybe tomorrow...

I pretty much have all of the platforms mentioned above at my disposal. 
  I haven't built the AVR toolset for the PowerBook yet, but it's only 
about 3 commands away with Fink.  However I'm finding the PowerBook 
makes the ideal electronic databook,  I can set it on the same bench as 
the other computer and view a datasheet or manual at the same time.  
None of the other systems approach the readability of text that I get 
on a Mac...

I'd like to get AVRDUDE working with the Butterfly under Windows 
though, and noticed someone had submitted a patch for it a week or so 
ago.  Using AVRPROG in Studio requires about 3 hands to work through 
the menus, and hold and press the right buttons on the Butterfly at the 
same time.
