For me that is not easy. Most of the time I get it work somehow and shortly 
after I did not realize why ... :-)
I have suggestions to make something easier, but I am always facing excuses 
why it is good as it is, so I less take part of this type of discussions 
which are exhausting for me.

May be mikroe is not providing the sourcecode (I am not sure), but they have 
for nearly everything a solution. Ethernet, FAT, SPI, SD-Card, USB, HTTP, 
TCP, etc...
There were problems in the past, but because they are (heavily) busy with that 
stuff they solve most of the important problems. And I think they are honest.
