Is that the Gert board
Yes, Gert is the hardware guy for the entire project, and his board is his own sideline.
I asked if it was going to be open source, but he said as he had spent a lot of his own money on the project so far he hoped to recoup some of it from sales of the boards. Can't exactly blame him for that, but it would not be the way I would have done it. He also seems to be trying ( and failing at the moment ) to implement the debugWire in the 328 system. So you can tell he is not so very experienced if he thinks such a simple processor needs this.
Many of the comments are interesting
Agreed, the comments fall into a few narrow categories:-
1) Sycophantic - you are all doing such a wonderful job ( despite the evidence of such a botched launch )
2) The amazed innocents - wow only £100 for an interface board we have to pay £800 for a control board at my school.
3) The pissed off - you promised a computer at $25 and now I am expected to pay tax and carriage on top of that!
4) The Linux code nerds - I am porting "big bits 6.3" to the Pi ( who knows or cares what that is )
5) The haven't got a clue about interfacing but this sounds like it should be an impressive question - what is the pitch of the header.
