Well, I'd disagree that my attitude is bad
"after all it's not MY money" is not a statement I would like an employee of mine to make. On top of that, I think hardware breakpoints are a BIG deal Of course they are and, of course, CIBO has hardware breakpoints. What CEIBO does not have is break at xxx ONLY IF data yyy is zzz. As such, I think I will be saving the company quite a bit on development over the years I may have spent 3 hours more per year having CEIBO instead of Nohau, probably less. That does not seem excessive to me. I can see some VERY unique applications where a trace would be handy (BTW the Nohau trace is (was?) almost impossible to read) but in the cases where, in my Nohau days I used the trace, I rarely got any help from it. NOTE: if you regularily have a BIG problem coding ISRs as they should be, a trace would be useful. Anyhow, for a good comparison of emulation technologies there is a good article at: http://www.ceibo.com/pdf/Technologies.pdf Please note that I am not criticising Nohau for being defective, useless or any such, only stating that, in my opinion the premium in price, while it may be justified by the effort to make them, is too high for the few added features.
