Newbie to lpc2368 & MCB2300 Evaluation Board

I have many years of experience with the Motorola/Freescale 8 bits line of microcontrollers and C language. The Metrowerks compilers have been for me a reliable solution for many years now, with a great compiler and a good programming / debugging tool.

I need to get started with 32 bit architectures but I am a complete newbie to the 32 bit ARM family of microcontrollers and I want to just jump to a different manufacturer. I find NXP's ARM very interesting and the Keil evaluation board appears to be a very nice product.

I would like to start with the lpc2368 processor and the MCB2300 Evaluation Board from Keil. It seems to me that a evry good compiler ( as I heard - no experience with it ), a FLASH programming tool and a debugger comes in the box.

Dear friends, my questions are mainly oriented at the development tools:

1. Are there any license or code size limitations for the generated code ?
2. Has the MCB2300 a full featured C ( not C++ ) compiler ?
3. The kit is enough to get started or I would have to buy extra parts, cables, software, etc ?

You oppinios are very valuable for me.
I am sorry for such simple questions.

Kind regards

Roberto

    Components Included Tells you what's included when you buy the board;

    System Requirements Tells you what you need to supply;

    Starter Kit Tells you what's additionally included when you buy the Starter Kit.

    Again, a telephone call to your local Distributor - or even a visit to their offices - would allow you to discuss your requirements in detail.
    If you have a commercial project in mind, they may even come to you and demonstrate their wares...

    Note that distributors often have seminars, attend exhibitions, etc where you could meet them in person.
