Proggy-AVR has been very popular for the last five years or so. It had a nice blue enclosure which made it attractive and distinctive from other programmers (that often had no enclosure at all). Now we are making a renovated, faster AVR programmer that is both less expensive and smaller. No wonder we expect it to be well accepted within the AVR programmer’s community.
Proggy - II works equally in AVR Studio4, AVR Studio6 and AVR Studio7!

Proggy - II has a 10-pin programming socket: If you need compatibility with Atmel boards then consider purchasing Proggy - II with 6 pin Atmel compatible socket.
