Whatever people might think of the way Stallman goes about making his points, the fact remains that without the availability of gcc, Linux wouldn't have been able to attract as many developers/bug-fixers as it has. Can you imagine what might have happened if working on Linux required you to buy a compiler from (say) Intel?
Yup, it'll install ok. However, if you check the list of installed programs (via Control Panel), you'll still see 1.0.1 there.
I think this info is there somewhere in the release notes though..
