Visual Studio costs $964.99 for pro and $1,412.99 for enterprise version.

Borland C++ Builder costs about $400 for pro version and over 2k for enterpise!

Does your Mummy by your compilers for you and shelter you from the price? or are you a software pirate? bit hypocritical for a programmer.

...and if the company pays, well who cares about the price?
