I'm sure !=3D operators have been around before His Billness was born -
software patents should be busted by prior art just like any other
patents. And as far as I remember this operator patented by M$ had some
specific enhancements to deal with classes so it won't affect C's !=3D
anyway.

have fun
Michael
