Eclipse is becoming increasingly annoying

As an Android developer I find Eclipse these days is becoming very unreliable. All of a sudden all my projects would not compile. I tried doing a project-> clean and build but still the error console would not tell me what is wrong. I had not made changes to any of the files. The only message I got was "Your project has errors, please fix it before trying the build".. very helpful right. The I thought let me try using my favorite IDE for all these years Netbeans, I have not done any Android projects using this super hero so a 30 sec googling is all that took to setup the environment and I imported my projects and there it is the proper error message your "com.android.sdklib.build.ApkCreationException: Debug Certificate expired on 6/18/11 11:25 PM". Thank you netbeans you are amazing.
