Hello,
I got the kit, had fun assembling it, lights up green when I plug it into the USB port of my Mac. At this point. I'm fairly sure the hardware's ok, but I think I'm missing something with the software.
Here is the error that I get:
[Michaels-Computer:~] michael% avrdude
dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libusb-0.1.4.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/avrdude
Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap
[Michaels-Computer:~] michael%
Any ideas?

Getting errors trying avrdude from a MacOSX Terminal Shell

I'm no expert on such things, but you may want to verify your paths. Looks like something's looking in the /opt tree (maybe a shell path configuration), but your executable is in the /usr tree. My libusb files, for example, are in /usr/local/lib/...
If I remember correctly, /opt is created by fink and other utilities as an alternate path for unix files.
There's probably more than one way to fix this issue, but I'm not in a position to suggest the best. I almost always use the default paths, and it seems to work out.
