	I was wondering if anyone could send me or post addresses for cheap
and relatively easy to understand and assemble kits or even schematics.
I am a first year CS student and am currently taking some digtial electronic
 coures so I think I need to keep it simple for now.
	I would like to keep the price under $40 Canadian including S&H. (or
about 32-37 US depending on the day and how much money I have at the time)
I would like to have somthing along the lines of obstacle avoidance provided
that it stays in the price range. 
	I am really intersted in robotics and would really like to have something
to keep me busy during the summer. 
	Thanks in advance.  BTW, I really like the cat avoidance idea, and would
be interested in somthing along those lines.  Also how would one make the 
ball roll (assuming I read the article right and the robot is actually a
ball).
	Thanks again,
		Ray Skarratt
