So I’m currently looking forward to getting home from work - my Arduino and ProtoShield (ordered from Adafruit in the US) have turned up after getting caught up in the Christmas post!
I’ve mucked around with Microcontrollers quite a bit in the past - firstly at Uni when we designed and built a system based around an 8051 MCU and then a year or so ago when I started messing around with Atmel’s AVR chips. Sadly however, lack of a decent (and cheap) development board held me back. Hopefully, the Arduino’s ready-to-run architecture, combined with the vastly simplified language used to program the board will give me a far better chance at making some progress with it!
