RE: The Age Old - "What Eprom Programmer should I get"question

I kept my workhorse Data I/O and bought one of those enhanced Willem
programmers on ebay. Mine cost less than $70 when I bought it over a year
ago. Works great on those larger eproms - I only use the Willem when the
Data I/O is incapable of programming the device. I have an old 100Mhz
Pentium laptop connected to my data I/o and to the willem and between the
two programmers I am covered.

Best Regards,

Bill

  I've been happy with my Data I/O 29b programmer for a long time. I
especially like it because it does all the 82S proms that I need.

  Lately I've had a number of people asking me to program some of the
27C4000 and 27C010 series eproms. I don't have the pinout cartridge to do
those and I'm not sure if I feel like hunting one down.

  Even though I fix games on the side for fun and a little side cash, I'd
like to get a nice eprom programmer (to program the newer, bigger eproms) -
but not pay $Big Bucks$ for one.

  I don't want to spend much more than $350 for one so I was thinking of
maybe the Needhams EMP-11 http://www.needhams.com/products-emp11.html or
maybe something that uses USB instead of parallel.

  What do you guys recommend?

  Thanks

  Matt
