Know of a cheaper evaluation/development/starter kit for a
microprocessor?  Available in Australia.

I need amplify a 147KHz sinewave to 100~300V p-p.  I was hoping to find
something I could just connect to a function generator.  Very low power,
probably not even a watt, needs to drive 100~300V into a 1000pF load...
Any equipment suggestions?

Looking for a source of springs about 110mm X 40mm. Jaycar, Altronics, Dick
Smith cats no go! Any suggestions?

Just bought some cheap IRF840's which turned up today with a poorly

amplifier to the output stage of my network analyser. Its a nice little

nationalistic stuff? The only hope for humanity is that we move forward and
forget the horrors of the past. All nations are doubtless to blame in one

Is this where PC boxes are heading?
$420AUD for a PC that runs on 20W of power, and can bolt to the back of
an LCD monitor.
It's the Asus EEE revolution doing it's thing again.

Hi colleagues,
need electronic circuit simulation software (preferably b2spice). who can
help? will be much appreciated.

I was attempting to verify my oven thermometer using a k-type
thermocouple attached to my multimeter.  Putting the probe into the
oven, the displayed temperature quickly rose to match my oven
