I've not seen Adafruit's. I've been using the sparkfun tutorials which have been amazing. Their part library is also very very helpful.

The makerbot on Colbert was great. Have you seen thingiverse this week? After the show many derived works with his head were posted.

Both those projects are very interesting to me. I was showing my wife
the Colbert Report with Bre Pettis and the MakerBot on it last night.
It's the one from the 7th or the 8th I think.

Have you seen Adafruit's Eagle tutorial? I picked up a bunch from
that, but I've forgoten it all.
