It's a lot easier to avoid becoming a zealot when you know what's going on underneath.

- zwieback 15y agoIf you want to play around with some hardware I'd recommend getting an Arduino board. You can start with the Arduino IDE and work your way down to the metal. It's a relatively simple system but the principles apply pretty much to bigger systems. Another good platform in the same vein is the BeagleBoard, which is a great way to play with a slightly bigger platform running Linux.
