i am waiting for VS 2010. From IDE pont of view VS 2003 is much more faster than VS 2005 and VS 2008. Any idea how VS 2010 will be? microsoft should give emphasis on how faster IDE loads project and give more importance to user expirience.

VS 2010 IDE will be completely new: It will WPF based! This is not yet the case with tech previews, but it was confirmed in PDC. The new .Net based extensibility model is there already though.
So, as a first version, I would not put my money on how well it performs. It may perform well, but changes are that it takes at least few service packs or even a new version before they get the performance right.
Having said that, in my opinion it is extremely important release: it will be the first VS that is really .Net based and the impact of that is potentially huge if you think about it from the extensibility point of view: how people are able to write their own aids and extensions.

There is no enough real good browsers that you are waiting for this piece of sh*t? What specifically you wait there that other browsers doesn't already have it?

One that has Microsoft's name on it, so the zealots can follow it and still be considered cool amongst their friends.

I can't believe people still use IE. 
Since Opera 9 came out it's obviously the best browser ever.

Just curious. I'm guessing it's like a halfway version with new features, but not enough to get a new Windows version. Is that about it?

I really enjoyed Sam's one liners about Duke.
Beside that I would like to see Windows 7 and Visual Studio 10 this year.

And yes, Windows 7, Office 14 and the new MS C++ compiler (couldn't care less for the IDE, though)

OMG.. It will just use more resources.. I'm completly satisfied with VS2008 
Win7 will be great.. less resource than Vista. Everything fine ;D
Don't try it, just do it!

The VS2010 you can test in the VPC seems to use about the same resources as VS2008. The nice thing about VS2010 is that it uses WPF, which is hardware/GPU accelerated. That should make VS2010 smoother and faster in the long run than VS2008.

As I'm moving my primary development away from the Microsoft ecosystem, OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" is definitely something that I'm waiting for.
Even though the Xcode development tools and Objective-C language are drastically different than Visual Studio and C#, I have to say that once you get used to them, it's nice to be able to connect C, C++, and Objective-C/C++ without any interop layers or marshaling. If you want a 64-bit version of your software, just check the box in Xcode or add -m64 to your command line and "it just works."

Funny...with .NET, I don't check anything for 32bit or 64bit...it just works on either without any hassle at all. Welcome to the beauty of the CLR.

Now take your .NET code and interface with some managed C++ that has to work around differences between XP, Vista, 32-bit, and 64-bit, and it's no longer that easy. The software that I work on must take all of that into account. The simplest thing for us to do was mark all of the C# projects as "x86" which locks us to 32-bit executables. On 64-bit versions of Windows we run under the WoW layer and can compensate for it. Unfortunately this means we cannot take advantage of any of the 64-bit benefits.
I'm still looking forward to Snow Leopard. My next graphics-related application will be written in C++ for the core, then Objective-C++ for the GUI. All 64-bit. The imagery that I'll be dealing with is around 50GB per file, for a single image. I'll probably port the C++ core to Windows and write the UI using WPF. It'll still have to be 64-bit though. "Dumbing down" the program to work in 32-bits is possible, but painful.
