Why? A subjective quality of the claim doesn't change the scientific method.
Build the device and demonstrate that it works. Publish the specs. Have other people who are not associated at all with you build these devices. If they confirm the results then the claim can be made relatively authoritatively.
I agree, but I don't think this qualifies as extraordinary.
Is this not a given? Has there ever been a movie that's been "as good" as the book?
Two that were better IMO:
Fight Club - good book, but the screenplay greatly improved the story.
Interview with a Vampire - granted it's not one of my favorite movies but at least they cut down that damn "Theatre of The Vampires" part to a tolerable length (unlike the book)
If you're trying to learn an unfamiliar set of libraries (such as the.NET Framework), the Intellisense feature, and also so-called (context sensitive) DynamicHelp are, well, very helpful.
cheerleading_mode = ON
This functionality is also available in MicroEdge's Visual SlickEdit. It's parameter info and auto-completion tend to be more reliable than Intellisense's (VC++ 6 anyway...) and are user configurable.
That (and about a bunch of other stuff) makes for a cool GUI programming environment that you can use with just about any CLI compiler. On multiple platforms even...
I must have these fine products; a million thanks for the referral!
Extrordinary claims need extrordinary proof.
