"Know How" does an Arduino tutorial:
http://twit.tv/show/know-how/21

They illustrate building a simple server controller using a Sparkfun kit
that includes a breadboard and an Arduino Uno.

I didn't pay careful attention to it, but they seemed to speed through
the details quickly. Probably better tutorials on YouTube.

The same episode also demonstrates how to crimp modular plugs onto the
end of CAT5 cable. (They failed to mention a critical point about making
sure you buy stranded CAT5 if you are crimping on modular plugs. You can
get plugs for solid wire, but they're more rare, and you shouldn't
really be using solid wire for cables that will be moved/flexed.)
