While I agree the 'other' IDEs may be crap, that's not an excuse for MS to make their product more crappy, but less crappier than those other ones. I'll miss the VS6 days. Nothing like those. I really despise VS 2010.
BTW, "10 is the new 6" is a lie or they don't know what they're talking about.

Help 1.x does have some major problems, it was time for an improvement.
Help 2 was apparently was designed by people who never had to add online help to an application, receiving input from technical writers who think it's normal to spend all day on creating help systems. A typical product made by program managers fresh out of the promotion lottery.
The rest is just good intentions. Overdesigned to scale to the sky, generalizing the actual problems of Help 1.x beyond any reason(stopping short of solving world hunger and unbreakable shoelaces), lacking the virtue of less is more, they created a behemoth of code and complexity that was rejected by the very companies that make money by making help building user friendly.
You can't blame MS for dogfooding it, though.
Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]

First ball in the first over on the first day! Tut tut! Even Graeme Smith can smile at that bold defense of the wicket.
But, England have come back a bit with a concerning number of runs over the last three wickets.

Nah.
He's just coming back from an injury lay-off.
They shouldn't be playing him, he's not in form at the moment.

Why is English cricket team almost always injury struck?

Because we stick to 'one' set of players, and play them no matter what.

They were sh*t and out first ball of the innings has been called a 'Royal Duck' for so long that an MCC member will have even heard it.

Last night I met a world renowned geologist in Barberton, Oom Faan (Uncle Faan) who is almost as old as the objects of his study.
Am I allowed to posit that self reference rocks?

ISn't it the windows live messenger= MSN?
|
|
|
|

It's the same thing as MSN Messenger, if that's what you mean. (It just got renamed when MS stopped trying to push MSN, and started trying to push Windows Live instead)

Geez,
As if you can't take a telling in the Windows7/ vista forum..........
here[^]
If someone says to me, "i saw this on MSN" they are talking about the Website, not messenger!

|

In My area MSN is the messenger and not the web site. So i guess it depends what area are you to know what msn reffer too.
