Phil,
I bought a cheap (hooks up to parallel port) programmer from:
http://www.dontronics.com/prod.html
It and the PICALL software are like USD$65 assembled. Works with nearly
any PIC chip.
Also, check out "mplab" which is a free assembly language dev
environment available from www.microchip.com.
If you are doing a lot of fooling around and testing, buy a couple of
PICs that are eeprom based. Erase them with a high-intensity UV light.
Cheaper in the long run than the burn once, throw aways.
cheers,
- Frank
