With all the chaos of trying to get in touch with my uncle before thanksgiving and gathering parts before thanksgiving I haven't had the time to keep up to date on my software.


I have to say that the Visual Studio 2005 Suit is a great improvement over VS .NET 2003. It allows for programing on mobile apps just as 2003 did but can also emulate your programs in case you do not have the right tools to test your apps with. I'm also impressed with the 64 bit coding and I'll be sure to explore more in depth on that area.

I'm not aware about the free (non express) part but it is a great product.

Visual Studio Team Foundation Server, a piece of what's likely to be known as "Visual Studio Team System 2006," is almost soup.

Team Foundation Server is a software lifecycle tool designed to improve software development team collaboration.

Team Foundation Server is also a complementary piece of Microsoft's application-management family of products, other members of which include Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005.

As the VSLive! conference gets underway in San Francisco Monday, Soma Somasegar, corporate vice president of Microsoft's Developer Division,

announced that Visual Studio Team Foundation Server will arrive in March and serve as the cornerstone for the VS 2005 Team System.

The software was built to better manage application development. "Team Foundation Server is designed to provide a single collaboration point for developers, testers, project managers and architects," Somasegar explained. "The Visual Studio Team System offers role-based tools for Architects, Testers, Developers, Designers and Managers."

Visual Studio rocks using x64 and it adds ability to make some wicked programs.
