Sorry, I didn't know that.

If you see light at the end of the wormhole it is most likely a photon
torpedo.

yes the gcc port for avr is available . called avr-gcc.
its said to be good. and support is available for the large development
community

Well if the original question is how do I get a good cheap C
environment for Mega128 development?....

I think the best thing to do is to call your local IAR office with
your educational use proof to hand -80% or more discount to
educational users you see.

Also -remeber the Mega128 has a nifty JTAG debug port -IAR's tools for
example can set brakpoints from the editor window that follow through
right into the target Mega128

That's very misleading - the jtag port on the Megas has nothing whatsoever
to do with IAR.  Every debugger software for the AVR which can use the jtag
ice (such as IAR's debugger, or the free standard AVR Studio, or the free
gdb/insight debugger, and most other AVR debuggers) will be able to use the
jtag debugging features such as breakpoints.

If you want to argue that IAR's debugger software is more powerful, or more
user-friendly, or whatever, then go ahead - I haven't used it on the AVR, so
I can't comment.  But don't claim credit for features of the chip itself !

You forgot to mention here that you work for IAR, although to your great
credit you did so on other posts (which is how I know).
