Quote:At my previous job, we were porting a UNIX system to Windows NT using Microsoft VC++. A colleague of mine, that was in the process of porting his portion of the code, came to me, looking really upset.

* Colleague: "Hey! I hate these Microsoft guys! What a rotten compiler! It only accepts 16,384 local variables in a function!"
OMFG!
I find it quite hard to believe that someone could even intentionally reach that. It would probably use almost every 3-letter variable name possible!
