Just as you type, people already get close to make PICkit 2
work on Linux already. Actually it already works with a
non-Intel box.
I think some people will soon release the code for PICkit 2
for Linux.

And so a newbie will have to plunk down $50 just to get started?
And for this you get 1 part (16F690), a pot, some LEDs and
a programmer? Seems pricey to me to pay for convenience. Then on
top of that any Linux person will have to wait until Mchip gets around
to releasing the protocol to talk to the programmer.
Hmmm.
