In SX Microcontrollers, SX/B Compiler and SX-Key Tool, dmyers wrote: As a side note remember Parallels Desktop for Mac's MSRP is $79.99 (if you purchase it now it's $49.99) and Windows Home is $189.82 (Amazon - Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 2) So while Parallels is a great way to run the SX IDE it will cost you $269.81 or $239.81 if you junp on it now and this assumes you have a intel macintosh. The above solution hammerhead74000's has outlined is free. and supports PIC and AVR MCUs. As long as hammerhead74000 programmed his IDE with xcode and gcc then he should be able to compile his IDE on Intel and PCC Mac's with a few modifications. Using one IDE to program all major MCUs would be a great solution and I wouldn't need to shell out $239.81 just to run the SX IDE (plus a intel macintosh at $599 since I don't have one). I look forward to seeing your finished product hammerhead74000.
