     b) Visual C++ 4.0

     Simply because it comes with MFC.

	I know.  I used to use Watcom.  Watcom is a good compilar except that it kept crashing on 
my computer and they didn't have any student discount.  Oh well...

  As does MetroWerks CodeWarrior 8.0 (for Macintosh).  You don't even 
need a PC to write MFC-employing, x86-native code.  Why you would use MFC 
is another question entirely. :-)

Shouldn't you wait til BC++ 5 is actually released, and people
have used it? :)

The validity of your results could be questioned...

Watcom does have a student discount.  It's only available direct from 
Watcom.  They sell the entire package for $99 through the mail if you 
have a student or university ID card.  Check out the Watcom web page for 
details.

B because MFC is completely portable to any other architecture that Windows NT 
will work on.
