[dorkbotpdx-blabber] assembler on the arduino?

[Greg Borenstein]

Don,

I, of course, realize that assembly is not the most natural way to  
program an AVR processor. I'm not going for utility here, but for  
education!

And the first step in that quest is to actually be able to run some  
assembly on my Arduino. Any tips on that or is just warnings all the  
way down? ;)

I'll keep you guys up to date on the Arduino-related bits of the class  
as it proceeds.
