Well ... time to see what it can do ... so far it looks prettier, lets see if it has less bugs than 2003

Awesome news, one problem:

I've only got 3 days (before Nov1) on a 192k line to download them and MSDN is going to TANK!

2.7GB for Visual Studio, 109Mb for VSS

The programmers actually wanted microsoft to delay the release of VS 2005... after the beta testers told them about a couple of buggs... I take it they did not care about that.... hopefully they have fixed them... Looking at the Tutorial MS sent me a couple of months ago, it looks good...

Proudly VB6 since 2000

 

[LethalChicken]

yeah .. they wanted a beta 3 .. but in true MS spirit they told them to sod off, which I guess is good ... as I'm seriously looking forward to the new stuff on web dev

Melikes the integrate any kind of project into one solution thing.
e.g. SQL 2005 Reporting Services Project + .Net WebSite usng them reports + SQL 2005 Analysis Services Cube + SQL 2005 CLR Code + Some Custom Classes ... all in one deployable solution.

Prettie cool.
