I am a fan of gcc/g++. It is free, about as standards-compliant as a compiler can be in 2008, cross-platform, and is certainly not cruel and unusual punishment. If gcc is not your thing, there are other compilers out there that are free and easily accessible (VC++ Express is a good example). -- John Gaughan
