[Blackpool] meeting Saturday 10-12

[Arthur Garlick]

Yes please Les.  I'm a Pic guy but it's just the first thing I tried.  I looked at PICAXE and dismissed it as not for me compared to spending a little extra and having the massive choice of the Pic range and tools, but never looked into Arduino.
 
I think my two sons will show to see what its about and if they are there my wife will want to come too (she loved the MOSI Maker Faire), I hope that's OK space wise.  
 
I will bring my Pic setup and our useless machine to quickly show - it might be good to compare Arduino vs Pic and discuss the pros and cons.  My 10 year old is pretty good with Scratch and together we are looking at Unity if there is any interest in that.  Both my sons and my wife will be interested in MAME too. 
 
 
Regards

Arthur
