In addition to what Paul and Jeremy said, I find it a shame for other reasons. VC6 was just a horrible compiler, with a horrible standard library implementation. Upgrading will give you much more than just being able to compile and use OSG 2.x, including using multiple cores for compilation, better optimization, better debugging, a *much* more standards-compliant STL/Standard C++ Library implementation, etc. 2 years is a long time in computing. Just look at how far OSG has come in 2 years, and try to predict where it will be 2 years from now. The more you put off following new versions of your tools, the harder the upgrade will be (but then again, it doesn't pay to be reckless with upgrades either, I'm just advocating a balanced approach). My own 0.02$.
