did you ever read the story about the guy who was given some award by the MSDN community for a plugin he wrote for Pro, and then microsoft tried to sue him because he wrote it using the Express Edition.

No, but that sounds pretty fake to me...
IMO, Eclipse is the best IDE out there. It includes plug-ins for C++ and C, so you should check it out. (eclipse.org).

Oh god eclipse sucks. Buggiest IDE I've ever used. It would literally crash every ~30 minutes or so, and the visual editor is a flaming piece of crap. At least on Windows.
I tried in on Linux, and it seemed a bit more stable, but the windows version left too much of a sour taste in my mouth.
Still, even if it didn't crash and was rock solid stable, it doesn't come anywhere near Visual Studio levels. I'm still looking for a Linux IDE with code completion half as decent as VS's IntelliSense (speaking of which, one of the original creators/coders of intellisense teaches at my school, weee...)
