I think MSVC is Microsoft Visual C. I don't have it. I'm unsure why I would need MSVC for a Linux 
compile.

I already run several VMs. I think AWS is Amazon Web Services. I block AWS and will have nothing to 
do with Amazon.

I do appreciate the offer. Perhaps someone will offer something that's not so life-changing and that 
I can accomplish on my own machine.
