I paid at least $150 for the textbook, that's before I realised the online price difference was that fucking big.

Turns out GIMP is shit at importing PDFs and retaining their quality.

I learnt at my labs using pic related, and they were pretty solid with few exceptions. Pop in a breadboard, slot in your logic gate ICs, and wire them up. They're great because the switches and indicators don't take up any room on the breadboard, and sometimes it really becomes wire spaghetti. Used it with standard 74LS series ICs. I'm not sure what a modern equivalent is like, but searching around it shouldn't be too hard to find something.
