1 stars (5+ year old Pre-standardized C++? No thanks!) - I bought this product thinking it would just be a quick intro to C++. It is a full course in C & C++, but written in 1997! The authors assume you have full access to development tools on a Unix machine to test the code, and the Java interface is very [poor] (program interface goes blank if another window covers it, difficult to recover from at first). You'd think they'd do the interface in C++ if they're such wizards. Add to that they (obviously) do not take into account any of the advances in either the language, operating systems or the hardware over the last 5+ years and you've got a fairly useles (for learning, anyhow) product. Keep away unless you really want to throw money away (might I suggest a worthy charity instead?), or just want it for historical reasons! 5 stars (Out Standing!!!) - One word: wow. This is an amazing tool for the beginners. This has helped me so much and I reccomend this product to everyone who wants to learn how to program! ...

3 stars (An average product...) - This is an average product in my opinion with not much really shining in it. Personally, I would just get Visual BASIC. Visual BASIC is about as "basic" as it comes when it comes to programing. If you think learning VB is hard then try making a program using C++. I'm not talking about VisualC++, im talking about actually opening up a compiler and typing the program out from scratch! 4 stars (LOW COST ALTERNATIVE) - This product will not turn you into a software developer, but at least you won't spend a couple of years attempting to master Visual Basic or C++. People can knock Instant.EXE, but it -Is-What-It-Is-! Instant.EXE fills the need to write usefull applications without wasting a lot of time and money! Compare $20-$50 for Instant.EXE to a whopping $750 for a useable Microsoft application suite! If you just want some of your own applications, this is it. If you want more than that, learn the .NET platform. 3 stars (Products that shouldn't exist) - I never baught the product, but I have delt with many non-programer software kits. After getting nowhere with all of them, I decided that I was better off just learning how to program. And I found that by putting my mind to it, I taught myself Microsoft Visual Basic, Visual C#, and even though I am only 16 I even managed to teach myself Visual C++. All I am going to say about this product is, lets face it, there is no effective way to write software then in a programing language like the ones listed above. If you don't like microsoft, there are many other companies also that develop similar products. Either way do your self a favor, rather than trying a dummy tool that probably won't get the job done, just learn how to program. It really aint that hard. ...
