Blocking community sites like orkut is required in an organization, but did they blocked useful sites like CP?

It's been a long time since I posted anything here. It may be because of the change in the IT policy of my company which now allows even sites like orkut :) .But I usually follow the discussions hppening out here and now I am having a sudden urge to start a thread. So my question is this. How many of you use VS2008 for development purpose and how do you feel.We are going for it. Any issues while setting it up
I've had VS2008 alongside VS2005 at home now for a few weeks, no problems so far, it does seem a little snappier than VS2005 but then it is the 'express' version :laugh: . One thing to note that I discovered yesterday though, VS2008 no longer supports building anything for Windows versions older then Win2K so if you need Win9X or NT4 compatability you're going to need to keep an older version around.

We have both 05 and 08 on the dev machines happily and have deployed winforms, web and service apps successfully. Excellent so far.

Are you sure? vs2008 still allows .net 2.0 apps, which are supported on win98/me. (not NT4 though) [I'll believe you though if your sure, I can't say I've ever tried it.]

I use VS2008 for my personal development projects and I really enjoy it. With 2005 it could be a pain to create a project that uses ajax (2 different templates and one of them is the wrong one to use). In 2008 it's all built in. I've also been playing with features like Linq to Sql. While there is a cool factor to linq, I could still get by with returning untyped datasets from my queries. I run my install on Vista and have had zero problems using it. I'm not doing anything too out of the ordinary, but everything seems to be working fine.

I've been using VS2008 since it RTM'd for C#/.NET3.5 development. It seems to co-exist peacefully with VS2005. My only gripe is the broken resource editor. I need to keep the resources designer file open (minimized is OK) when I'm editing the
.resxfile in order to prevent losing strings. :( /raviMy new year resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Articles | My .NET bits | Freeware ravib(at)ravib(dot)com

It's great! I've had no bugs so far and I relly like .NET 3.5!!
