Can someone tell me why should I upgrade from VS 2008 to 2010 or 2012
-
I have been using Visual Studio 2008 for a long time, recently I made a project and I had (because the customer want to) to 2010, The fonts were terrible and I was a lot slower, (I have corei3 2 gb pc), can someone please tell me a reason to upgrade, please a good and logical reason. thanks in advance
C++11, better editor, more responsive GUI and probably more, if these are things you care about, then upgrade.

2012 is much faster at compiling large projects and I perfer the dark theme.

Oh, can you do Auto-Parallelization and Auto-Vectorization in C# and VB too?

Parallel C#[^], not sure how far they've got though

So automated parallel is just available in C++, that sounds strange, I though C++ used the .NET library, no? Than it seems a little strange not to include the function in the higher languages or?

My i7 handles vs 2010 very well. But I only have 32gb of ram. Here on site, I have a i5 with 4gb and it seems well enough.

Only if you're doing C++/CLI, you can still do pure native C++.
I thought you only used pure C++ with driver development or other specific hardware stuff. Anyways I also though some of the .NET libraries came from Intels core? When do you really want to use pure C++?

Drivers/hardware/other low level stuff is one reason. Native code is also commonly used for graphical applications, e.g. DirectX/OpenGL. Or code that can be compiled and run on multiple platforms. There are plenty of reasons, the basic rule is "use the language that's right for the job".

I've never heard that, so I have no idea. But .Net libraries run on the CLR, which is written in a native language I would think.

Looks like the bought some code from intel inseted: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8870442/how-is-math-pow-implemented-in-net-framework/8870593#8870593[^] My bad :)

Usually not, that would be C++/CLI

Higher languages?

Well I meant High-level programming language but was thinking of C# and VB, but I guess C++ fits in too. But I think I can classify C# as Higher than C++ :-D

My understanding of C++ is that its mostly used for a lot of detailed oriented tasks, while C# and VB does not have the easy ability to every thing, so a Higher level languange that is more removed from the assembly code.

To me a higher level language supports higher level constructs, and the development of such constructs, enabling the developer to clearly formulate a program through code. Doing this in C++ is usually easier than in c#. What C++ lacks is extensive standard runtime libraries ...
