etc don't tell much ...

I find a combimation of open, cross-platform tools to be much more 
transparent, flexible and powerful. Fixes often are available much 
faster, and else you can switch any component at anytime.
For incorporating a debugger, the IDE concept seems to be a good basis 
though; but that alone doesn't cut it for me.
