Cool new book
« on: December 21, 2006, 07:43:17 PM »
Late Christmas gift?

This is a book instructing how to completely build a 1-Wire station. Looks promising.

I called the local bookstores and no one had it. So, I had to order it. It should be here by January 5. :?

Same reason as me! Looks like a nice, long weekend project for months! Are you going to build everything, or just a few things?
