He is speaking about C++ code and compares it to MSVC 7.1. I'm not a big MS fan and I certainly don't want to advertise them. MSVC is the standard compiler for most Windows users. The Windows build should be as convenient as possible. If our main goal would be speed I'd probably settle down with the Intel Compiler. ;) Christian _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
