Has anyone else read the license agreement for Visual C++?  It says something 
along the lines: "You can not use it to develop any word/excel product or 
products that will be used on other operating systems."  I can't seem to find 
it right now, but if we are going to talk about licensing/support etc someone 
really should read vc++'s license.
