Thanks for the update Dave, it's a shame that I'd also have to factor in the cost of buying a windows licence to run the software. I do have a legal copy of windows vista, but I don't think studio 7 will run on anything earlier than windows 7? Martin From: D

That sounds great! Perhaps it is because I am in Canada but the Atmel store (http://www.atmel.com/tools/atatmel-ice.aspx#buy) says that I can't buy the ICE online. Several versions are available from Digikey. Did you get the Atatmel ICE Basic or Atatmel ICE or...? > -Original Message- >

I tried to buy it from the Atmel store as well and I was told the same thing and I am in the US. So they aren't picking on Canadians yet. ;-) Try this: http://www.microchip.com/developmenttools/productdetails.aspx?partno=atatmel-ice Make sure you use the Coupon Code when you check out to sav

Thanks, it looks like Microsoft is changing their marketing tactics (about time too) so you can actually try before you buy. At least you can check if your hardware will actually run the OS before spending any money, what a novel idea Actually we do have a very "thin client" Windows 10 lap

Dave, More info than you probably want right now, but. At some point in the future you might want to alter fuses; Atmel bare chips ship using the onboard 8Mhz oscillator and divide the result by 8. If you want a chip to perform as it does on an arduino board with an external 16Mhz crystal

Ordering from Microchip appears to have worked. At least I got an order confirmation back. They added HST (Canadian VAT) so I assume that it will arrive here without additional fees. Thanks! > -Original Message- > From: Dave Cole [mailto:linuxcncro...@gmail.com] > Sent: Sunday, February 26
