Hi Nate,

For future reference: If you want an included compiler on Windows, be
sure to download the _MinGW_ based Qt. Regarding the availability of
"preconfigured"/bundled compilers, Qt 5.7 is actually the same as Qt
5.5.

Microsoft does not allow their compiler to be distributed by 3rd
parties, thus the Visual Studio (MSVC) based Qt cannot come bundled
with a compiler.
