    MFC is dead. Today it is all about .Net. Go get Visual Studio 2010 and build to your hearts content. For application programming, I would lean toward c#. There is a lot of demand for c# coders. In the world of C you will come up against guys with 20+ years of experience, looking for work.

    I recommend you to go with Qt. It's a lot easier and more powerful than WIN API & MFC. Besides it's cross platform.

    MFS is indeed dead.
