Why do I choose Arduino?

herewith is some of the reasons of me choosing an Arduino;-
Open Source Physical Computing Platform
  • “open source hardware”
  • open source: free to inspect & modify
  • physical computing. er, what? ubiquitous computing, pervasive computing,ambient intelligence, calm computing, everyware, spimes, blogjects, smart objects.
 Community-built
  • Examples wiki (the “playground”) editable by anyone
  • Forums with lots of helpful people
Similar to Basic Stamp (if you know of it)
  • but cheaper, faster, & open
 Uses AVR ATmega microcontroller chip
  • chip was designed to be used with C language
