I have been planning on buying some sort of breadboard, power supply, and/or an trainer that incorporates both and was wondering if anyone had some advice on this stuff. Want to do mainly analog work, but would have some control chips from time to time. Global Specialties seems to have some good trainers and breadboards for this, but they can be expensive and I've seen no-name units for much less (found at Electronics Express).
So since I won't be using it in an educational or commercial environment, what would work? What should be avoided?
