So Chris, not to trash other people's products, but something sound odd 
from your mail on the subject of MakeApp: IAR charges $??? for it and I am 
sure their goal is not to serve as a "powerful library of examples," but 
that it is "a family of visual development tools that helps you design and 
implement device drivers" (from their website).

Obviously you are not using the program the way they are intend. By this 
metric, they are not meeting their goals. The fact that you have saved 
"more than $200 worth of time" is called making hay when you have dead 
grass :-) You should let them know that and may be they will better 
re-position the product.
