cool but i herd those computers were expensive tell me how much it costs

[Macka007]

If he's using what I think he's using then they're actually quite cheap. You would be looking at around the Au$10 mark +/- $5, depending on supplier, model etc.

Look up PIC, it is a commonly used Microcontroller made by Microchip and would be fine for this kind of application.
