 When it comes to microcontroller development platforms, Windows gets almost all the love. There are tons of commercial, gratis, and FOSS tools for Windows to support microcontroller development as well as the peripherals often associated with embedded design (e.g., [[http://www.digi.com/xbee/|Xbee]] cards). When it comes to microcontroller development platforms, Windows gets almost all the love.

-The 8051-family of devices' main advantage seems to be that unlike the other devices discussed here, 8051-based chips are not single-sourced.+The main advantage of the 8051-family of devices seems to be that unlike the other devices discussed here they are not single-sourced.
  
 A fairly comprehensive package for 8051-family devices is available in the [[http://mcu8051ide.sourceforge.net/|MCU 8051 IDE]]. It provides a simulator, source code editor, assembler, programmer and other tools. It uses [[microcontrollers:linux_microcontroller_development_options#SDCC|SDCC]] for C language support. A fairly comprehensive package for 8051-family devices is available in the [[http://mcu8051ide.sourceforge.net/|MCU 8051 IDE]].
