and i almost forgot:

executable size:
VC++: 1138688 Bytes
g++3.2: 994705 Bytes

compile time:
VC++: 21s
g++3.2: 76s

So there you go, gcc is SLOW but is pretty damn good and FREE whereas VC++ is faster but EXPENSIVE for a poor broke lad like me.
Also i checked out VC++7 but due to its reliance on .net framework, the fact that it eats more ram than mozilla and its SLOWWWWW performance on my machine, I had to throw it out.
As a last note, i did try out icc from intel and was not too impressed with it, it basically had the same performances as gcc-3.0, costs much more and was the worst pain to install on debian (it's distributed in .rpm format).

.sigs are for woosies
