I am curious as to what people really require in ICE's, simulators etc. 
for microcontroller development.
It seems to be in vogue to have huge Trace memories, but how much is 
enough ?
Also, breakpoints. How many break points are considered minimum, maximum, 
or adequate ?
If you develop microcontroller equipment, what do you use for development 
tools and what features do you pay for that you never use ?
I'm more interested in opinions than references to good articles, so 
either EMail me, or post if you think discussion is appropriate.

Steve.
