Programmers and emulators

[DC Smith]

 It probably just smoked that 1.50 radio shack transistor in there. It's shown in the owners manual on disk. If you boot the computer with the PP hooked up and powered is what seems to fry mine. I've fixed it numerous times, after I wasn't watching what was going on close enough. Get in a hurry, smoke the programmer. Just that easy. lol
I carry a spare transistor and solder iron when I travel. That way I can fix it in the motel room. :)

Has anyone had a PP last for very long, I can pay the $55 to have this one fixed but if the life span of these units is a little more than a year, then I'd rather belly-up to the bar and spring for a better programmer. I spent a couple of hours last night browsing over my options, I'm liking the EMP-10, as I don't need a super-duper universal programmer than can support 7000 devices.
