I noticed you linked to the UK version... The US version is worse. http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/default.mspx[^] We get a 5yr old drawing how cool it is on top of that slogan. Cause planets and space has everything to do with a stable/bug free developing platform.

It looks like we've got more to be worried about as there seems to be a new smiling-face-planet in the solar system, plus what appears to be a few cross sections of a tree. What do they teach kids these days... :-D

I was actually thinking about that. "Hey look, Jupiter is hanging out next to that SMILEY FACE PLANET THE SIZE OF EARTH!!!" Seriously, looking at it, we are the only option there that has that crap thrown in.

Why am I getting lyrics in my head now? "I'm hung like planet Pluto, hard to see with the naked eye, but if I crashed into Uranus I would stick it where the sun don't shine."

That wasn't really that awful, relatively speaking (this IS Microsoft, afterall). I actually enjoy using Visual Studio!

Who in their right mind would pay to see ME like that? Ok, wait... I'll rephrase... Who in their right mind, wrong mind, or any other mind...
