Lpc2000

I'm new to ARM too. I tried GCC first (have been using
and compiling Linux since 1996), but it didnt work
out. Finding info and making sense of the error
messages makes things tough. 

Tried IAR and Kiel, and got stuck with Kiel. Their
sim, IDE and programming interfaces are very
intuitive. I'll try gcc again when I have the time;
for pressing projects (or ones requiring small sized
programs) I'll use Kiel.
