As an MFC / native C++ developer VS2010 offers me 2 great improvements versus prior versions:


  • Parallel programming library and debugging support. At last multi-core/thread programming is 'do-able'.
  • Visual ribbon developer. OK, you may not like the Office 2007+ ribbon but it's the current look and I want my software to look like Office.
  • Still a few performance issues on some of the new stuff which makes using them a drag. Had to renew my Visual AssistX, which does these things much better/faster etc. (as well as other lovely stuff) and now I'm happy again.

    From my experience so far there is little reason NOT to go VS2010 across the board. (Unless you need to build for W2K. Native C++ compiled code does not run on W2K - not sure about others.)
