Hello,

I downloaded the DirectX library hoping to get into windows
programming.  Least to say I was highly impressed by the demos that came
with the library and was very eager to start using the thing.  To my
dismay I found out you needed Watcom C++ or some other high priced
compiler to use it.  I was wondering if there is any way to us DJGPP or
some other free compiler out there to program with?  I am only 17 and
cannot afford expensive things such as this!
