As for M$... I do not do enough M$ development to justify spending the $ and the *pain* on their tools. The last time I tried to help someone download their *free* version of VC, we got a warning that it would die in 30 days because we choose not to register it (and give them our email addresses, etc. -- no thank you I get enough SPAM from M$ as it is).



Well, at the moment, you can download SDK which contains Win32 and Win64 compilers for free. Which in fact makes mingw sort of pointless for serious work... (of course, in reality, this can be considered as another M$ move to supress competition, but OTOH, for Win development, SDK is unfortunately way better than mingw...)
