That's sarcasm folks, calm down. For the record, I work in a plethora of development environments as well as compilers as a professional on a daily basis. They are all equally crap, except for VIM, which isn't technically an IDE but there are enough enhancements to it these days that I count it as one.

Visual Studio isn't a compiler, but MSVC is

I think the main attraction to Visual Studio is just how $@#$@#$@#$@# good IntelliSense is. The only system I've seen come close is JetBrains' code completion, but IntelliSense still tops it IMHO.
