[ASK] me about OS/2 Warp
I've been working on a project with Arduino and RPi, and I know I'm not working with 'real embedded' stuff yet, but I am in love with tiny computing devices and the things they can do. I have a Stellaris on order and want to play with the 430 stuff as well.

I'm assuming that it would behoove me to grind on C for a while? I write perl for a living and can hack through Arduino sketches no problem, but as for the finer (uglier?) points of 'real' C, I'm green.

[ASK] me about OS/2 Warp
The good Radio Shack here has the Sparkfun/whatever shelf with not only Arduinos but stuff like BASIC Stamps and other platforms, and has full-height parts drawer racks. And they know that when I walk in that I know what I need already, haha. I actually bought my first Uno there on a complete impulse. 35 bucks isn't bad for instant gratification.
