Anything with PIC16F876A/877A? Anything on EBay? PICDEM2+, 18F2620/18F4620, ICD2 and the free C18 student edition wiill be a very good start for him. PICDEM2+ supports 16F876/877 or 16F876A/877A as well. I think there are some eBay clones. But anyway I have not bought anything from eBay and from what I heard they are of mixed quality. PICKit 2 Debug Express (16F886) is a cheaper alternative.
