      There's a reason I'm still running VS2010 :) And like Windows ME, hopefully they realize that Windows 8 is just that painful step between a good operating system and an even better one. :beer: Here's to Windows 9 and the return of the start menu and desktop :)

        At least this part seems to be working fine. Did not have an Aha moment yet. My old projects build fine. There is GIT integration which is exciting.

            One thing it does have that I am interested in is more C++11 support. November CTP included variadic templates and initializer_lists that were buggy and did not have std library changes. With the Visual Studio 2013 preview, the quality of implementation is improved, and the features now have std library support. In addition, with a go-live license - this is the first time you can use variadic templates in production with Visual C++.

              Applications created with Visual Studio 2013 Preview spans PCs, mobile devices, and the web, all powered from the cloud,... What? Why? and building on top of your existing applications and skills. Given the number of dingbats using C#, VB, etc in QA- That's quite an assumption, isn't it?

                  It provides a comprehensive solution that works both on-premises and in the cloud, that adapts to your processes and removes the barriers between business stakeholders, development teams, testing and operations. Visual Studio will kill your PM and BA for you?

                        yes, an actual substantive improvement beyond the "cloud fluff" and new colors/icons for the IDE :) Still using VS2010 and was disappointed to learn I can't use range for or enum class...

                          No, not exactly, although every time I boot my Win 8 machine I have to explicitly hit a button to go to the desktop and then wait another 30-60 seconds for Explorer to load. Win 8.1 is bringing back boot-to-desktop and although the button for the start "menu" is there, all it does is bring up the huge full screen super annoying menu. Granted 8.1 is better than it is currently on 8 with vertical scrolling and sorting, but in the current version of Win8, finding my installed programs is not easy, to the point I just made shortcuts to all of them on the desktop which I hate to do.

                            Very true -- been running Win8 on my laptop for some time and I don't think I ever use any of the apps and rarely even go to the start screen. I pin'd the apps I used to the taskbar and just use that. I think for a touch device they may be nice, but I haven't found any need for the store apps on a laptop.

                                  Sounds like it could have come from Top Gear if that's the actual translation.

                                    Years ago Volkswagen used this word in thier television advertising, at least in the U.S. Perhaps to John it meant nothing especially interesting because, "It's not a car, it's a Volkswagen." Another of their equally ineffective advertising tag lines.

                                      I knew there had to be a story behind it. I have a Volkswagen, and it's boooring. John has a Mustang. I've never driven a newer Mustang, but the '67 is NOT boring. The cornering is almost dangerous, but not boring.

                                          Yeah I think I agree. My only reason for upgrading is for C++11 features, most of which are in the VS2012 release (also otherwise boring and I still hate that it SHOUTS TOO MUCH).
