You can't compile dos programs (win32 compilers generally don't). It'll do console stuff, win32 stuff, everything MSVC++ 6.0 did and more.
>what is the .net stuff?
Stuff to turn you into a godlike programmer, or baby eating maniac depending on which side of the fence you fall. There's been loads of posts covering this; do a search.
C++.NET is more conformed to the ANSI Standard C++ Also.
