Wow indeed, $64 for the upgrade from 2.6, including new version of MCSP - ordered! I have no doubt it's worth it.

Here are a couple of items from the feature list that drew my attention:
  • Parsing and Formatting of ASCII Strings
  • Conditional Compilation with Command-Line Constants
  • Configuration settings listed for each supported device
  • New #CONFIG directive eliminates the need to edit header files
Only thing I don't like (but do understand) are the dreaded online activation keys... They do allow installation on three machines though which is nice.

I really hope the new version (5.0) of MCSP contains loader files for the newer PICs or better yet (if possible) a generator like they say is available for the MCSP ICD.
