Intel Compiler in VS

I was reading another thread on the Intel compiler and saw that Intel has a Visual Studio plugin that allows the IDE to compile using it over the VC++ compiler. Has anyone used this compiler before with the VS IDE? Can anyone name some disadvantages over using Intel over VC++? Does the debugger work with this Compiler (I'm assuming it should)? Any other comments of suggestions would be nice. Thanks in advance.

Yes.

Can't think of anything offhand, other than price. I suppose if you're using other compilation goodies like Incredibuild the integration might not be great (though I'm just guessing).

It is free for non commercial use.

The Linux version is free for non-commercial use.
Unfortunately thats the linux version of the compiler. The windows version is not free for non-commerical use :(. It does, however, have a evaluation version.
