isn't dex supposed to spike insuolin, and is considered a simple sugur (they add it to Creatine drinks for this purpose)?
isn't maltodextrin supposed to be slow acting non-insulin-spiking (synthetic, from corn usually, to mimic a complex carb)?

I don't think that's right. I read recently that there are long-chain malto's and short-chain malto's. the short chain are basically dextrose and quick spike, the long-chain (that most think of when discussing maltodextrin) act as a complex carb and slow release. I'll see if I can find the link.

Best tasing post workout combo for dieters: 1 liter vanilla coke about 100g high fructose corn syrup. 5min later 3 scoops optimum choc 100%whey 69g pro.
When you are dieting this is what you will look forward to all day long, you wont even want to take days off because then you can't have a post workout drink combo.

Actually you should do the whey first then the carbs later because the carbs go into your bloodstream much quicker than the protein and they "push" the protein into your muscles.
I bought n-large when I was bulking last fall just because it was so damn cheap, but it tasted godawful. Some guys love it, but I couldn't stand it. I mean for a drink with that many carbs and that much fat it should be delicious. It seemed to work for gaining weight though.
I just mix dextrose, maltodextrin, and CFM whey isolate into some sugar free kool-aid post workout now. No more thick shakes for me.
