      Definitely. The product teams and everyone else (various support groups such as MSDN) have been working 'round the clock on this. And don't forget all the beta testers out there who greatly helped improve all of these products. Windows Vista Program Manager MSDN Online MICROSOFT Windows Vista Developer Center My Microsoft Blog

            Anyone know what the difference is. Am I going to be able to get everything don with Pro. With my MSDN currently I use the Architect versiion, as having Visio for VS.NET was handy with its extra DB tools over normal Visio. But the addition of Visio seemed to be all there was. Not bothered about the team suite itself.

                                      Yeh, I know, but at the end of the day its an awful lot of money to dish out, and even more so for something like the new source safe that is not cross platform. Shame the static analyis tools etc, only come as part of it. They should have included those as part of the main pro dev studio. I hope they includede the profiler. After all there has not been one since VC6.
