Visual Studio 2008 RTMs

Visual Studio 2008 RTMs 20 Nov 2007 07:13

The funny thing about being on this side of the world is you always get to wake up to some good news :) This morning it was the slightly unexpected and delightfully early release of Visual Studio 2008 and the .NET 3.5 Framework!

Soma has the details here, there are a bunch of links to the publically available pieces and trials and if you have MSDN you can now grab the Team Suite! If you are looking to ship on the 3.5 Framework, then you can find the redistributable here.

As Ive posted about earlier we are using Visual Studio 2008 almost exclusively now at Mindscape, in fact we only use Visual Studio 2005 to create our sample solutions prior to wider availability of 2008. Outside of a few areas during the betas its proved to be very fast and very solid - so I would highly recommend you look at making the move forward - start by checking out the 2008 trial versions and seeing if you enjoy them like I have :)
