#125975 - is it worth?

Hmm...the firmware seems to be poorly written and it programs only a few chip types.

It's a popular amateur programmer and since then it went commercial as sunrom.com, where it has seen newer firmwares (downloadable, but with no source) said to support more of the AT89xyyy chips.
Some links in http://www.8052.com/forum/read.phtml?id=124534 .

Anyone who's a hardware guru care to take a stab at designing an 8052 burner (preferably also with 8048 support)?

You don't want that seriously... 8048 means 2 quite precise voltage sources (21V and 18V) and an awkward programming method... Forget EPROM for homebrew, in this I am with Erik. However, FLASHs are in, but it's questionable if it's worth the hassle, having less-pin (ISP) options available...

PS. If you REALLY want to invest time and energy, what about making Linux support for a RD2-style (intelhex-style) protocol? I'd even go further and try to design a compromise version of it to be able to program all Atmels' and Philips' RD2s + those of LPC9xx's which support it; plus a "burner" where we can go for as much freedom as possible.
