    I don't know what the pseudo-spicy Japanese greeting has to do with this,
    but this site is as basic as it gets - in more ways than one.....

    Check out the Basic Stamp FAQ:

    There are many links at the end of the FAQ too.

    The Parallax site offers all the basics. Download the manual and
    search for the different projects/tutorials.

    Find something you think is cool, see if Parallax has done it, and
    printed the enitre project out. They have lots of projects 'in the
    can' Each is a building block.

    Once you feel comofortable in lighting LED's and changing buzzers
    pitch and stuff and you get some personal goal, control you swimming
    pool maybe? try it out.

    Keep reading this site and ask any foolish questions you want, lord
    knows we all had asked which end is the postiive end of a resistor at
    one time. Besides, really dumb questions allow the guru's to show
    off and us beginners to feel like we already passed that milestone.

    One word of advice, it's better to ask a foolish question than make
    a foolish mistake.

    A second word of advice, if you have a question that you feel might
    be really dumb, search this list. Someone probably had asked it. (or
    many people asked it many times) There are some really great
    questions and really great responses on here.
