My 'fondest' memories of MSVC++ are typing several lines of compiler 
options, linker options, and search paths into windows that were one 
line by maybe 20 characters long.  You could do it, and scan through it 
to eliminate typos.  But you could really tell that Microsoft was trying 
to send you a message about linking in foreign software.
