Subject: [alt-beam] Re: Bread Bored
go to http://www.allelectronics.com
and ask for a catalog (free). They
have some nice breadboards. I got thair largest one. It's like 4 of the
large Radio Shack boards, and is $35 (plus $5 shipping). They have a
smaller one that is only $15, and is the size of 2 Rat Shack boards.
They also have a $7.50 one that's the same size as the Radio Shack
breadboard, but with no base. For a beginner, the little ones will
likely be fine. I do a lot of expirimenting, so I bought the big one.
Good luck!
