    I want to get started with a hobby in electronics. I have an MS in CS, so I wouldn't mind learning a little microprocessor programming as well...

    Anyway, a few questions.
    What sort of tools will I need?
    I know I'll need a soldering iron and multimeter. Suggestions on these that work well at a decent (or cheap) price?
    Any good resources (websites or books) for a beginner like me?
    Anything else I should know?

    Slashdot gets 3000 news submissions (a week, a day whatever I cant remember) and the best you can come with is this.

    Pathetic.

    The silly cute fluffy stories like this are just shit. I tell you what slashdot you post some meaty meaningful stories and I'll click your ads for you :)

    Seriously the more meaty stories you publish the better. It's what people want. You are too timid with stories and give a bad image to geeks.
