Any day of the week, when Laplace and crew decide to get their butts in gear and release a new, non-buggy version of Dev-C++, I''ll gladly favor it over MSVC. Until such a time, I''ll keep taking M$''s crap because it crashes the least. And that''s a sad statement, but true.

You might not have had major issues with it if you''ve only used it as a newbie, but in my experience, it quickly becomes impossible to work with efficiently when you scale up your development model. I can say this because I used it to develop about 30% of one of my engines, after which I upgraded to a "newer, better" version (this was around 4.8 I think...). They introduced so many bugs with that release that the 5.0 beta STILL has most of them.

So, no.

Peace,
ZE.
