: Microsoft has stated that VB will include a compiler.  I hope for their sake 
: they make it soon.

So what?  VB will still be a messed up mutated language with severe limits
and incredibly frustrating to use, especially when compared with the other
development tools out there like Delphi.  If you've used VB and Delphi both,
you'd realize that VB has much deeper problems than what including a new
VB-compiler will be able to resolve.
