    Instead of a custom PCB have you thought of using some OTS hardware like an Arduino or Netduino?

    What environment do you code on for that board? Assembly? C?

    I come from the land of higher level software development (C#, etc) and adapting to the low-level mindset has my head spinning

    Quoted from herg:

    The most expensive part is the USB chip

    Yeah, I hear that. I like the Arduino/Netduino because they have all that for free; usb, etc. But yeah, if you want to drive anything above 5v you gotta add it anyways, and you lose some of the pins from the underlying controller chip.

    I keep hoping I find a project that I can use the Netduino mini
