Arduino starter kit

A little while ago I picked up an Arduino Uno starter kit from CuteDigi, just to play with.

This kit includes an authentic Uno R3 board (not a clone or compatible), small breadboard, jumper wires, USB cable, and a a bunch of components for playing around with circuits.  Along with tutorials on the Arduino website, Adafruit, and others, learning to program the Arduino is pretty straightforward.

I plan to use an Arduino to control a stepper motor to run my barn door tracker.
