I have always been a bit-man... I prefer to have total control over all the registers, files, code, bits, and the like... but, it takes a long time to code that way. I use the MPLAB for my coding and want to start using a C compiler. I just want to hear what people out there use. What's good, cheap, and prefered - usable with MPLAB?
