I'll second this. It's what I use as well. It's one of the more reliable programmers.

Btw.. If you are still interested in Basic stamps, the exorbitantly priced developement boards that parallox sells are nothing more than a serial cable, and a voltage reglaor all put together on a pretty looking PCB. You can build your own for under $15.

Really? I thought there is a built in programmer on those as well. I could be wrong.
