That sounds promising. I'll get a copy for both Win 7 and Gentoo. I had free versions of Visual Studio from some University classwork in computer science (from an agreement the Department had with M$), but they will not even install on my new computer due to the 64 bit OS. I just wish the M$ would make Windows fully open source - from what I understand, despite its prevalence, they do not make too much money off their operating system - most of their income derives from the XBOX and other software (like Visual Studio, and Office). At least, that would serve to make Windows better and more secure. Chris --- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean.
