ok. I ordered my parts today and I did not order the download cable. How would I make one by getting some parts from Radio Shack? Also I looked at the program to program the picaxe chip and noticed it looks for bin or hex files. how do I make the code given here at the beginning, program with that format? And of couse always a last question. I have a Matrix contoller so I will need to get the 1.8 resistor mentioned. Is there any other alternative with the same results that would be cheaper than buying the whole lot of resistors (maybe putting 2 together or somethin)? Sorry for all the questions but want to make sure I get it all right the first time.
BTW: Security Torx was the only thing making me wait so long and tonight my wife realized the center piece comes out easily in those screws. I had it apart in a minute after seeing that. lol!
Okay, Looking into it further I looked at the 500-Piece 1/4-Watt Carbon-Film Resistor Assortment and it may have all I need in that 1 package. I saw what looks like all of them I need but if you look at the description on Radio Shacks website it shows for example, it has "1, 10, 100, 120, 150, 220, 330, 470, 560, 1.5k, 2.2k, 3.3k, 4.7k, 15k, 22k, 220k, 470k, 1MEG, 10MEG resistors (10 each)" does this mean the 10 it has is the 10k I am needing as well?
