mcc18 is not free, and in fact costs $495. We should all be thankful that Microchip decided to donate it to teams.


As far as C programmable microcontrollers, have you looked at Rabbit Semiconductor? They make a z80 derivative. They have a promo right now where you can get a development kit for $99. http://www.rabbitsemiconductor.com/p...05_230.60/DOM/ I've found Rabbit's documentation to be better then most other embedded targets I've worked with.

I'd suggest picking up an electronics hobbyist magazine (ie Circuit Cellar) and browsing the advertisers.
