    The PicKit2 is the most popular - kychristmas has some currently available here. Option two with the ZIF socket is the way I would go - I started without a ZIF and added it very quickly after programming several PICs...

    Yes, but only for 8-14 pin DIPs. However, he has sold out, I believe.

    The 14 pin socket is all that is needed to program the chips we generall use here.

    The guy I bought the ten kits from has now become a member and is going to start selling them directly. He created a post in the Vendors area earlier today:

    Currently you can go to his Ebay store and purchase from him. You can trust him and you know its being shipped from the good ole USA.
