Analyst 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2005 (edited) If you have the bandwidth try downloading the Microsoft Express products. They are full development systesm that do not lack power given the price (free)I use them at home to test code that I will use the next day at work.

madcrow 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2005 Meh. I'd much rather go with GNU stuff, even when I'm stuck on windoze. Nothing from Microsoft is really free, anything free from them is really just an ad... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
