Our main product is a Visual Studio/Eclipse plug-in, so we obviously have to support VS2012. I wrote about some of the hoops we've had to jump through just to support the VS2012 dark theme[^] recently, but that's just the start of it.

However, we're not considering moving our own code from VS2008 (we skipped VS2010 due to its bugs and sluggishness) to VS2012 just yet - for one thing we still have to support devs using Windows XP, and for another we're not sure if we could cope with staring at that amount of greyness all day.

C++ 11 support is a big, big draw though (I for one am heartily sick of C++ '03 code). If we can't resist it and VS2012 doesn't fit the bill adopting the Intel C++ compiler in VS2008 is the other logical choice.
