Personally, I just found it immensely useful.
It also properly detects the SDK, which is nice.
I don't really see the appeal of nmake. Why use it? Pg proper got rid of
it (for good reasons, IMO) and it's generally pretty deprecated for MS
tools.
I don't pretend that MSBuild is the most beautiful thing around (more
like the bastard child of CMake and Ant) but it does fit in with the
tooling really well, plays well with MSVC, and is well supported.
