I bought a brand new Brother laser printer for $59. How much ham gear can you buy for that little?
Slick PCB-making technique, though---I bookmarked the page.

All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Hey, did you see this on the same guy's site?

Looks like a very cool option for simple stuff when you don't need the power of a full-blown PIC or Amtel AVR microcontroller.

Neet Technique.
I bought one of those Radio Shack etching kits back in the day. I flipped the design and surface mounted through hole components. That was 1980. I was a bit ahead of the times. lulz.
These days I buy those premade pegboard looking boards that they sell in various sizes. Of note, the also sell round ones. Is that cool or what!

I had a subscription to Science 80 magazine at the time. Some company was in a write up about miniature caps made from magnesium plus composites. In my case, I would have preferred to have a drill press to drill a bazillion holes.
Hello.
What does it do that a Basic Stamp does not do?

Remember to pit apples to apples, the BS1 chip has everything on board, right down to the voltage regulator.
And what is the cost per unit? all things being equal.

Hello.
Cheap?

The chips themselves are $6/7, depending on the one you pick.
And it is on a par with the basic stamp in function, just not as complete or compact.
I said cheaper than a Basic Stamp.

And that does not address the programming issue. A PIC or AVR must be programmed using ANSI C. The Nut Chip uses a much simpler, although less capable, truth table method of programming. If you don't need the full power of a PIC, AVR or Basic Stamp or don't know C, the Nut Chip seems like a good alternative for hobbyists.
