I've been using it happily for some time now, but I've not managed to get the 030306 build to install properly (it keeps whinging about some cygwin DLL). My binaries are dated 040203. I've never got JTAG running with W98, so I stick to serial download. I've always preferred working with spare lines, LEDs and printfs anyway. I suspect the problem is the lack of a development platform (and will) among the active developers, and that we poor benighted ones who don't use Linux will have to get our act together and contribute. Incidentally, allow me to whinge about the W32 distribution: 9Mb is a big download for those of us who don't have boadband (UK you see, it's only available in big ciies). Paul Burke
