+ | USB-Serial note: We will have a number of FTDI USB-serial adapters available for use to program your Diavolino at the space. Purchasing one is not required for the workshop, but if you want to do more Arduino programming on your own, you will probably want to get one. We may have a limited number available for sale at the workshop ($5-$8, depending on the exact model), or you can pick one up at Micro Center for $8: http:// | ||
