Re: Idea: Visual NXC

Just in case it isn't obvious, Visual NXC is currently on hiatus, as I'm doing a time-management balancing act here at college, and with work this summer. While I hate to admit it, this is yet another one of those projects where the developer sadly doesn't have the time to complete a free and commun...

Re: Windows 8 Dev Preview is Out

Yup, same as spiller: running Win 8 Pro x64 through Dreamspark Premium. Excellent OS.

Re: Idea: Visual NXC
