You are. While it is possible to create Win32 executables with
'g++', doing so will not be 'learning Windows programming'.

Also, on Win32 there is no good separation between "system" and
"compiler" header files. Just like every Linux "assumes" gcc,
Windows "assumes" VisualC ... The afxwin.h resides in e.g.
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vc7\atlmfc\include

Finally note that command-line VC++ is now available free:
