I found the dependencies in Visual Studio took some getting used to but that's a design issue, not a stability issue. I have to say it has taken them 15 years to create a usable IDE, but it's definitely stable. I used MAKE until Visual Studio 5.0 because the IDE was useless for anything but a stand-alone EXE or DLL. But let me contrast that to Borland's fictional Windows hosted debugger: a DOS character based tool that you switched to from the graphical IDE. They would advertise "Windows Hosted Debugger" but instead of that POS we kept using Microsoft CodeView with a secondary monochrome monitor. Then there was Borland's String class wherein the designers apparently didn't know what operator overloading was: no operator=() on the String class.
