I agree with this guy, VC++ seems a bit of a strange recommendation,
understandable in that it is the authoritative compiler for Windows, but
sits uneasily with the philosophy, and.. are non developers going to pay out
that much just to compile a slightly non-centered version of apache?
I'm not ranting, just curious.
