I would like to know what I need to program an in-system-programmable chip, specifically an Atmel microcontroller. For example, if you had the chip, a computer, an RS232 cable, and a bread board, what would you need to complete your initial setup and get some code on that chip? Also, the microcontroller I have does not have an internal clock and requires either an external clock or a Crystal with 2 capacitors. I'm not sure what size capacitors to use and where to get a crystal/ceramic resonator.

Thanks for your help on the last post, btw.
