[Noisebridge-discuss] Interest in an Arduino class?

[Glen Jarvis]

I took a similar course in college on Intel 8051's, so I'd be *super
interested* in an Arduino version. Frankly, I'm really *really* booked on
time and tapped out on money -- but this may be an opportunity cost not to
take it now.

How much is this course (is it free like all noisebridge courses that I know
of)? How much time/money/resources do we dedicate to this?

Cheers,


Glen
