AVR-Chat

Thanks, James.  Looking up fbprog.exe as I type this reponse.   I got my 
AVR-Lite for $6 off of eBay about 2 yeares ago, this is the first time i 
have had occasion to try to use it.

   I am doing a favor for a friend. He has an ATtony2313 project for a 
telescope controller which I am popping the code for, since he has no 
processors or programming hardware at all, and I have a surplus of 2313s 
(4 of them is a surplus, if you don't plan to USE 2313s)

   On an entirely different note, speaking of free samples of AVRs, I 
ran into someone recently who has obtained free samples of USB AVRs, so 
apparently Atmel has altered their sampling policy on those chips.  *YAY*
