    It's running Windows.

    If your CS lab is forcing you to code in Windows, they're doing something wrong. You should be coding platform-independant C, which you sure as heck won't be getting on Windows (unless you're using a godawful DOS prompt).

    Like the other reply, our lab was full Sun Solaris before moving to full Red Hat 9 this year. We have no Windows machines at all.

    If your CS lab thinks that C is a good language for doing computer science in, they are doing something seriously wrong.

    Seriously, only operating systems courses can really justify mandating C in this day and age.
