    FWIW, Beta 1 of Orcas seems more stable than the RTM of VS2005. It's certainly worth a look if you want to see where things are headed.

                Is that just the C++ bit you are talking about?

                          I have and the only complaint I have so far is the size of the program (5.6GB download, at least the version I have)

                            I thought so too, I've actually got a copy of it but it's complaining it can't find one of the hard-drives, Base01.vhd or something or other.

                                So far so cool.. Their web editor is much better now with a style manager and split view (yes, I do a lot on web applications :) ). Overall though, one my system at least, it seems more buggy than 2005 (without SP1) and often dies when exiting. Also it seems to have some quirks trying to attach to a web session. I just wish they would get his wrapped up and out the door so they can start on SP1 ;)

                                  Specifically, yes - although the IDE seems more stable in general, too.

                                      Doesn't that mean you have the virtual PC version and it's trying to do a merge with the base vpc disk?

                                        No idea, I use VMWare mostly but it doesn't like the VPC image.
