If you have access to a system with a parallel port, you can always 
build the very simple programmer from the arduino site, too. I believe 
Paul linked to it in an earlier email in this thread. I haven't tried 
building it yet, but I think I actually have all the parts lying around 
here somewhere. If I ever seem to have free time again, I'll have to 
give it a try.
