Anders look to ebay for your eprom programmer. You can get a top notch 
programmer on there for $150 U.S. and close to top notch ones for less than 
$100. In particular look for willem or Top 2005 . I have one called a 
easypro 80b. It programs over 4200 devices and cost me around $150. check 
out this one.

or this one

Erasers can also be had anywhere from $50 and up.
