AVR-Chat

I would choose gcc, either through WinAVR or Eclipse. Eclipse runs on  
linux, Windows, Mac.

Any compiler will have a drop-down menu with many processor choices.  
After all there are many AVRs. And, there are no one-processor  
compilers. So, every one MUST do many. A long selector menu is no  
problem because you usually make that choice only once when you start  
a new project. Maybe you change if you shift to a larger processor.  
So, once, maybe twice, rarely three times in an entire project. Not a  
big issue.
