I know how easy it is to build a PIC programmer (a few resistors...that's
it)...so why is it so hard (nearly impossible?) to build a working AVR
programmer? I would like to build one instead of buying one for monatery
reasons, and because i know that the AVR's are better chips. Although, the
PIC is remarkably easy to program for...
