Subject: Is DJGPP just as good as Borland C++

Hi.  I've recently installed DJGPP, and Rhide and I am about to start
learning C++.  I have some previous programming experience.  But not much.
But I catch on pretty well when it comes to computers.  I want to learn C++
and become pretty proficient(I know it will take many hours).  

But what I want to know is should I go out and buy a compiler like Borland
C++ or will DJGPP be all I need to learn C++ proficiently(along with a
couple of books)?  I heard that this is one of the best compilers out there
and that's not just because it's free(although I do like that!).  I also
heard that Rhide is a good companion.  Is it really??  Also are there any
other companion add-ons or tools that are out there, free or otherwise, that
will help me learn C++.

Thanks in advanced.
Alan Wilson
