    Actually, I prefer to code naked. I gave up the sword long ago, and modernized my arsenal. I no longer have to wait for enemy hoards to actually knock on my door.

    There is only so much ammo you can carry around with yourself and once the hordes come crashing through the door there is nothing like a good swort for a fight at close quarters. Btw, I heard that Bowie knives are illegal in Texas, of all places

    A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

      So what Visual Studio Add Ons do people use? I'm using Visual Studio 2010 Premium if that makes a difference. TIA - Jeff.

            I have several thousand rounds of ammo at the ready, and all of my magazines are full I can take out several hundred hoard participants without having to reload a magazine (eight 30-round, six 20-round, eight 7-round, and five 12-round, and three 25-round). Let's see... that makes 551 dead or wounded, and I have a speed loader for the AR that lets me fill a 30 round magazine in about 10 seconds. It'll take them that long to climb over the dead/dying that are stacked at the door. I'm not worried (and I have a Bowie knife, but I only use it to cut off ears for my trophy cabinet).

                  Given the nature of curve functions and the premise that time is normally plotted on the x-axis, a steep learning curve should imply that you learn quickly.

                    Then pray that the leader of the hordes never met my drill instructors :) Otherwise they would not come one after another and from several sides and even do something as cowardly as using any available cover. Your odds would rise if you have your own horde inside your castle, but even then tend sieges to be short, brutal and to the defender's disadvantage with modern weapons. And let's not get totally unfair and think about some artillery or air support.

                    A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands.

                                You can't add anything to the express editions. I remember reading an email chain (I believe from the developer of testdriven.net) where he had a long drawn out discussion with MS over why you can't put things into express editions.

                                    I guess you're right. Express doesn't offer the Tools/AddInManager menu item which Pro does. If so, 1. I can stop trying 2. I wish the installer would make that clear. Thanks. :)

                                      Chris - you really should look into Mole (by our very own Rockstar and k-dawg). If you do any SL/WPF development, then you will find that Karl's XAML Power Toys is a real time saver.

                                      I have CDO, it's OCD with the letters in the right order; just as they ruddy well should be

                                        Forget addons. One can actually use Visual Studio? Just kidding. :)

                                        Yup. Mostly i use 2k10 to exercise Weven's app crash recovery feature. In hundreds of trials, it's yet to fail to reload VS after the crash.

                                        3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18

                                          None. I'm an outlaw programmer, and a barbarian.

                                          A *real* barbarian / outlaw never has to declare themselves so, others do it for them. ;)
