Misconception #553: The Intel C++ compiler costs money for hobbyists. Fact: Intel distributes its C++ compiler for free under two conditions: compilation must be for non-commercial use and you don't get committed support. Given that these are 'hobbyists', then these are perfectly reasonable requirements. See http://www.intel.com/cd/software/products/asmo-na/ eng/compilers/clin/219856.htm.
