Got mine about 3 weeks ago, awesome development environment and the MSDN disks are great too. I've been meaning to get an MSDN account, when I get the money, since it looks quite worth it.

I am sticking with visual C++ 6, but I did just receive Mein Kampf and The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich from Amazon.com today. That silly wittle adolpf was such a wascally wabbit!
I'm not immature, I'm refined in the opposite direction.
I just did it, they said they were shipping. Now when I become a real programmer I'll have use for it.
So did i. Now i have to watch those videos
Do they send it rightaway or we have to finish watching those video?
Hello, testing testing. Everthing is running perfectly...for now
If they said they were shipping, then they're shipping.
It took a while for me, though, so be patient. Like 3 weeks.

It would be linux killer if it was good for anything other than games I can't get running on linux natively or with wine, sucking, and development of applications that can be sold.Originally Posted by SMurf
Considering that it's widely known that MS makes their dough off Office, they should do the same with Windows. Then you have a Linux killer.
It has been just over 7 weeks for me and still nothing.
Hopefully I will receive it next week. *Patiently waiting*
Wow, nice tip, didn't know about this deal going through the stuff now.
Seems like you have to be working for a buisness in order to be able to sign up for this...
I am a clerical worker at Cprogramming incorporated.
Indeed. Did you know that Govtcheez, Inc. had a programming department?
If I did your homework for you, then you might pass your class without learning how to write a program like this. Then you might graduate and get your degree without learning how to write a program like this. You might become a professional programmer without knowing how to write a program like this. Someday you might work on a project with me without knowing how to write a program like this. Then I would have to do you serious bodily harm. - Jack Klein
They turned me down...apperantly you need something called a "college degree". Discrimination at it's finest.Indeed. Did you know that Govtcheez, Inc. had a programming department?
Did they just send you an email or what? I'm working for the second company this year but I definitely don't have a degree yet. I hope they send me things anyway.They turned me down...apperantly you need something called a "college degree". Discrimination at it's finest.

and is the VS 2005 Express free? Is it pretty good?
2005 Express is free and it's... ermm... ok. I'm a tad bit annoyed at the fact the IDE leaks memory and at all the default settings you will need to change just to write strict ISO C++.
It's probably why I don't care much about this offer. I intend to use only C++. And mostly portable code. In the end Visual C++ won't even be my tool for any release versions I may produce. The debugger is awsome and I must say the compiler is too. It makes for a great debugging tool. I also like the GUI. But that's about it.
minGW implementation of C++ seems to me more serious and stable. It makes for a great release compiler.
