Well, as there are many ppl that do complex scenes with a text editor
and povray, there can be ppl that do complex works with gcc... But, if
U don't have special needs that let U use gcc (because dunno it has a
special feature that U need), this compiler is really bad. If U want
I'll tell U why: it's slow, it lacks a good ide (kdevelop is shit, and
bugged) and a good ide boosts productivity, it lacks a good debugger
(SoftIce rules) and it lacks a good profiler too (VTUNE rules). It
lacks documentation (msdn), it's too slow, really slow, and ICC
generated code is better. What else do U need?
