I used to enjoy tinkering with a bit of computer programing when I was younger and fancy having another try (just for fun) so I've downloaded and installed Microsoft Visual C++ Express to have a play (it seems a good place to start). Assuming at some future date I fancy buying the full version can I buy the single C++ language, I can only find references to Visual Studio (containing a full compliment of languages) on the Microsoft website and this is pretty expensive.
There is a copy of Visual C++ 2003 on ebay, so this used to be the case but I'm not sure about the 2007 or soon to be released 2010 versions.
