Bought First Controllers DIY

Today I bought my first light animation controllers. They are DIY. I bought 2 Lynx Freestyles and the DMX Dongle.

The Freestyle can control up to 128 channels.
The Dongle will allow the Freestyle to connect to a USB port.

The goal for 2008 is to animate my static rope lights. 128 channels will be more than enough. I bought two because I think I'll need two for the 2009 display. I figured I'd better assemble them both now and have identical controllers for '09. It also allows me the comfort of knowing if I mess up one assembly, I still have another shot!
