Serial or USB and a few other questions.
Hey, should i use a serial programmer or a usb programmer? If i use serial, ill probably buy a serial to usb cable...........would that work? USB is alot faster than serial too right? ALSO, whats the best enclosure company, and wher can i get samples of attiny85V besides the official atmel site, because they wont respond!!!!! Uggh..............also pactec is awesome!!!!!!!!! I ordered 10 free samples of large cases and they sent them, even though i wrote that im a hobbiest!!!

USB through a serial dongle won't be any faster than the serial it's converting to/from.
