- Basic Stamp 2 - Tutorial and Applications
- The Basic Starter Package was developed to help newcomers. Although it is specifically targeted to newcomers to the Parallax Basic Stamp 2, it may be used with other similar devices such as the TIC62 by VersaTech or with the Parallel Port. The idea is to furnish everything required, along with a few tutorials, such that the user may begin 'tinkering' quickly and relatively inexpensively.

Mark Twain quote for the day:
The easy confidence with which I know another man's religion is folly teaches me to suspect that my own is also. I would not interfere with any one's religion, either to strengthen it or to weaken it. I am not able to believe one's religion can affect his hereafter one way or the other, no matter what that religion may be. But it may easily be a great comfort to him in this life -- hence it is a valuable possession to him.
