I would like to buy a programmer for my ATmega8 from ebay.com
for example like this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=50915&item=7519278787&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW
maybe somebody knows how long LPT cable I can use ?
I need about 60 ft.

Don't bet on it. If you're REALLY luck it might still work, but the LPT
interface was never designed to work over such distances.

I've seen installations where printers actually worked 100' away, but I've
also had personal experience where 25' away didn't work...
