would that fit the bill? It seems to come from Thailand, although there seem

I am also not averse to buying secondhand, ebay or otherwise, if I can get
something that is going to be more generally useful than the Willem.
I've heard some pretty bad things about the Willem programmer. You might
have some luck looking for a second-hand Xeltek programmer, perhaps on
eBay; I've had pretty good luck with mine. Be aware that if you get a
parallel port one, you'll need a parallel port at 0x378, which means you
either need a native port built onto your board or, like me, a PCI one
and a Windows XP VM which pretends that port is at 0x378.
