I know, I know.  I used to be a 100% hardcore M$ basher, they so
far haven't produced anything that doesn't drive you insane when you
try to use it for more than 10 minutes.  (That @#&! MSWord is the
best example of this, trying to outsmart the typist all the time -- even
when their programs don't crash they ill-behave)
Then came along VC++...  Once you're used to the nice IDE and the
debugger, going back to vi and a bare bones debugger is kindof
rough...  Damn, this MS thing actually rules.  They must have bought
it somewhere, but still.
