Arduino

Ok, so I broke down and picked up an Arduino Uno at Radio Shack today.  It was only $35.   I went to see about some connector cables to fit on the MarcDuino board pins, but alas Radio Shack doesn't carry them, at least in store.  I'm there looking through the micro-controller packages on the wall hoping for some cables, and there on the bottom shelf look so lonely was the Uno. No price tag so when asking the clerk what it cost I couldn't walk away.  Adafruit.com where most people I've seen buy their Unos lists it at $29.95 and shipping is another $3.99 so I basically paid for tax instead of shipping, and no waiting.  :D
