    Visual Studio 2010 CTP

    For those interested in getting a head start on .NET 4.0, a Community Technology Preview of Visual Studio 2010 was released as a Virtual PC image a couple of days ago.

    Not off to a great start though - the download is offline at the moment.
    Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

    Sorry VF, but I do admire your dedication though.

        What OS is the image using? Windows 7?
        Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it
        Feist - I Feel It All
        Feist - The Bad In Each Other (Later With Jools Holland)

          Great, something even slower and more bloated.

            You not like VS 2005/2008? I personally find them a joy to use.

              Having looked at some of the new application design tools the bloat might actually be worth it.

                  We recommend the following minimum system configuration:
                  • Minimum 40 GB available HDD space. (75 GB recommended for better performance)
                  • The host computer must have a minimum of 2 GB RAM, with 1 GB allocated to the host operating system and 1 GB allocated to the Virtual PC.
                  • We recommend that the host computer CPU be at least a Core Duo 2 GHz processor



                  How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                    You can get a 4GB RAM Core Duo 2 GHz processor laptop these days for £500 (inc VAT).

                    Not exactly a high spec by today's standards. e.g. http://www.ebuyer.com/product/151290

                    Acer Aspire 5920 Intel Core 2 Duo T5750 2GHz, 4GB RAM 250GB HDD, 15.4" TFT, Blu-Ray/DVD-RW, Vista Home Premium

                    Now £499.99inc vat
