Oh, and let's not forget about the millions of lines of C++ code
written for the Windows platform that will *never* be ported to
Linux. How's that for a domain of large software systems? If
that scary old ambiguity monster was really so bad, why doesn't
VC<6,7,8,9> enforce the scope rule? If template member names
were such a problem, why does VC8 not demand the
'->template f<>()' syntax?
You can mumble bad things about Microsoft all day long, but they
sell a lot of software and make a *lot* of money supporting a
commercial realm that's surely much larger than the *nix
world.
