To each his own.  I've used makefiles for decades.  I can use them
when I have to, either because workspaces fall short or I need
something really funky that can't be done with custom build steps,
etc.

FWIW, the VC team has committed to making the workspace/solution
approach scale better with less "lag" when compared to a makefile
based approach.  They are trying to get to a situation where they are
"eating their own dog food" so to speak.  I hear that VS.NET 2003 is
better in this regard, but I haven't tried it yet.
