In case anyone's interested, I'm just finishing up a sketch for the Rainbowduino (an Arduino clone for driving LEDs) that will support the boblight, atmo and maybe some other protocols with up to 8 bit colour. It's also able to be placed into several different modes where it gradually changes colours for mood lighting, and a mode where it just turns on all LEDs (for generic white backlighting).

The reason I went for a Rainbowduino is that out of the box it can easily drive 8 1/2 metre RGB LED strips, and mine is currently being powered from my PC's internal power supply via a power molex connection (using the 12v feed). The LEDs are attached via some CAT6 cable, as this was what I had lying around.

Once I've finished, I'll upload the source to github and maybe post some pictures and a wiring guide -but in all it's pretty straightforward to put together.
