Texas Instrument (TI) is trying to galvanize the hobby and enthusiest market with it's very low power MSP 430  microprocessor family.  To do this they have created a Launchpad board. They are practially giving the board away @ $4.30.  

Thanks to Google's free sites I am going to try to keep track of all the interesting documentation, projects and software.  Why? More for my benefit, as a stab at organizing the information in a way that makes sense to me - TI is an enginering company - not a web design company and their site(s) show it.   Maybe this will help me - I hope it might help you.
