Is there an answer here some where?  The point of joining a mail group is to 
get answers form the people in the know, not flip comments.

So, does anyone know, first hand, if MSPGCC supports down-loading of code and 
debugging of the USB based eZ430-xxxx? The documentation on the web site 
doesn't mention it and comments in newsgroups going back a year don't paint a 
clear picture.

Thanks,
Dave
