I stand corrected. thanks. I didn't realize MS released a certain free
portion of what is in Visual Studio .NET. It didn't use to be that way
and I wrote it off when I found that Dev C++ was, imho, a very capable
IDE in its own right. I suppose as long as MS doesn't pull it off the
shelf for free use, then I suppose it's fine.

Hi Matthew,
I've always thought it odd, that the source code for OpenOffice is
open, yet the software needed to compile it is not, such that if one
wanted to modify core parts of the suite or even just wanted to
compile it for the heck of it, you'd have to spend a significant
amount of money to do it.
Without entering the debate as to whether using that particular
compiler is acceptable or not, you should not need to spend money to
get it, as it's if I understand correctly part of the toolkit released
for free by MS:
