> maybe I can get my old VB6 IDE running again... Why? Just run delphi 7 so that you at least will have sane exception handling ;) But on a more serious note I wonder how the lazarus-ide will do on ReactOS.

Mostly because VB6 is the IDE I learned programming with and I think I heavily used it until '06, at which point I switched to C# and .NET and much other fun. Mostly for Nostalgia...

  That’s where I learned programming as well. Around that time someone hooked me up with a VB 1.0 IDE. It ran on windows 3,iirc. Or was it straight DOS? Talk about blast from the past.

    There was a VB 1.0 for DOS, but also a 1.0 for Windows released earlier I believe. VB for DOS was a bit of a dog, IIRC.

  You bringing up VB6 made me smile. Anything VB makes me nostalgic as well. During Thanksgiving I talked to my Uncle who gave my family our first computer and also asked him if he remembered giving me his old copy of VB 3.0 to install. We couldn't remember if it was 20-something or 30-something 3.5" floppy disks but I remember feeling really cool being the only person out of my programmer buddies who had a legit VB 3.0 install.
