      that doesn't stop me. I vm'd my entire work PC, so Intel compiler, MS IDE, Qt, et al). No I meant my work business at home has to take different directions. Which is not a bad thing, it makes it easier to keep the two separate. :)

        Good thing I am doing open source (government funded medical research) programming so its free for us. Being a long time MFC programmer who has written 500K lines of MFC I am amazed on how much better Qt is than MFC. Specifically its much better designed and does not suffer from a lot of bad decisions that were made decades ago. Also it comes with tons of functionality that I had to create for myself when using MFC (reason for many of those 500K lines...)

        I've always read articles and posts about how great Qt is compared to MFC. Having suffered a lot from MFC's macros and ATL's templates (I mean, I like templates, but don't take it to the extreme!), I've always told myself I would find the time to learn Qt, but, damn, time is so scarce... To be honest, perhaps I haven't tried yet because I'm afraid of the learning curve. I'm quite proficient in MFC (not great, just good enough to do what I need to), I wonder how much it will take me to be able to do with Qt what I currently do with MFC (computer graphics and heavy use of the Doc/View architecture, mainly).

            I believe learning Qt will not be totally foreign for MFC programmers. There are a lot of things that are the same or similar. With that said, signals and slots are completely different than windows event model and there is no doc view. Although I added my own template driven doc/view in a few hours to a single app. Its far from complete but it does what I need at the moment..

                  I prefer Windows - more control over things, richer user interface, don't have to deal with multiple browsers. Depends on the requirements though.

                                  Windows development is the law! And nothing will ever replace C++ as my favorite language.

                                        Einstein argued that there must be simplified explanations of nature, because God is not capricious or arbitrary. No such faith comforts the software engineer. -Fred Brooks
