Actually GPS is pretty need. Do a right mouse click on any identifier and a
popup menu appears where you can go strait to the definition of that
identifier.

You can also visualise call trees and such which can be quite handy at
times.

GPS just doesn't have intelisense - problem is that Microsoft has a patent
on that. Not that they deserve it - there is prior art - but would you want
to go to court with M$?
