You're all missing the point. If a needs more than three 2N2222s and a handful of resistors, it's too hard and you don't have time. Or as an old crystal set friend once put it, "A profligate waste of silicon."

Stupid move on my part but the ice did appear thick enough to support my weight. I nearly froze my little brass ones off before getting a fire going to dry my clothes. Lesson learned!

So far I can't think of a single compelling thing I might want to do with an Arduino that would be worth the investment of time and expense. Can anyone point me to a list of capabilities for these devices - or is that something left to the experimenter to discover? I still have a TS-1000 computer (with 16k memory) here somewhere, just gathering dust. So little time, so many things to piss it away on.
