AVR-Chat

It could be, Russell, that the rest of us didn't want to get involved 
with this silliness.  Just because a program will not compile one 
project doesn't mean that it won't do a passable, even an exemplary, job 
for most of what an individual wants to do.  However, that being stated, 
I don't use anything but assembler on a microcontroller and none of my 
projects are very complex, being just data acquisition, control and test 
automation.

I also use Windows and in something on the order of 6 years of using XP, 
it's only locked up on me 1 time...and that was when a virus got in the 
system.

Stop trying to pick a fight or start an argument.
