The upside of the VB6 IDE, used on a recent computer is that it's amazingly fast and snappy (it was meant to run on 1998's PC's).

That's what I kept telling myself when I had to work on a legacy 600k LoC VB codebase last year. If you ever find yourself in the same situation, use the first paragraph as a mantra to keep your sanity.




It was fast and snappy back in 1998 too. Much faster and snappier than Studio 2010 in 2010.
