he said he lost several hours on a dialup connection to download VSX in the
first place.  And just wiped it out before trying because would have to
download an additional, what, 2MB?  I'm not a pro M$ guy, you know.  But it
seems it was a complete waste of time.

Or, if he already had the other tools available, couldn't he just point VSX to
the available headers and libs via paths or environment variables or something?
