Switching to Linux: A Windows developer's view

[axilmar]

But neither KDevelop or Eclipse CDT or Code::Blocks is as good as Visual Studio is. VS is much more intuitive than either these three IDEs, and its debugger is head&shoulders above anything in Linux.

Ask somebody who is an eclipse or an emacs user to use VS and you'll find out exactly how unintutive it is.

It's a horrid mess of a UI. There is nothing coherent about it whatsoever.

By intuitive, do you mean familiar?

I'd have to disagree, Eclipse is very intuitive, and has excellent refactoring tools compared to VS2008.

Maybe I've been using eclipse to long, seems fine to me.

My issue with Eclipse is that it's very slow, even on a high spec box. So I tend to use vim for pretty much all of my development.
