    Call me prejudiced, but I've yet to find an app that looks and handles slick.

    I didn't ask for "looks as slick as it handles" :rolleyes:

      Via dotnetkicks[^]: Yahoo is demoing at CES[^] their next generation Yahoo Messenger, built in .NET 3 and WPF. Looks great! :cool:

          Guess at least Yahoo! is taking Vista seriously! They must not have listened to the negative press :) Their app looks cool. I would like to have an online voice mail/video mail/text message system so that people can leave messages when I am not online.

              So... does it work? Personally I'd be happy to go back to monochrome green-screens if I could find some software that works. Vista appears to be nothing but a makeover of the interface, and it doesn't work as well as previous versions. I really miss the days when a person had to be computer-literate to operate a computer and we really didn't care about flashy graphics, only if the thing worked :)

                Does it include the usual spyware and other junkware? [OT] Is WPF fully supported under Windows XP?

                Yahoo IM does not. You are thinking of "anything made by AOL"

                    Copy and pasted from some notes I made once...

                    Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 (2.8Mb initial plus 30Mb during the install) is here (release notes).

                    If you have installed a pre-release .NET 3.0, there are instruction on the release notes page to help uninstall it including a link to  .NET 3.0 pre-release uninstall tool.

                    Some general information here:
                    http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=659520&seqNum=1&rl=1

                    Free training: http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=5578179

                    Note that .NET Framework 3.0 = .NET Framework 2.0 + WF + WCF + WPF + WCS (see here) - i.e does not include C# 3.0 which is 'Orcas' timeframe.

                    As far as Visual Studio 2005 goes, you need to install the Windows .NET Framework 3.0 SDK for Vista (is OK on XP SP2).  This is a big download (1.4Gb iso file) so find an existing DVD copy!  There are specific "Visual Studio 2005 extensions" for [W]WF, and WCF/WPF.
