          | Excellent, if not one of the best IDEs. Only problem is the express editions make it difficult for you to setup external libs and stuff (i.e. have to install platform SDK and hack a few variables in the config file to get it to work properly) and also no 64-bit/dual core support. |  |

          | Ok, thanks for the info. I haven't really any use for 64bit support I guess but external libs I do. Well, it's always fun to test something new. _________________

          | I've been using C# Express and XNA Game Studio. I also have been teaching C# game programming courses.
 I really like the IDE.
 So, I'd recommend it. :D

          | Can someone direct me to some newbiefriendly tutorials? Both C++/C# places would be great. _________________
