I've been using VS2008 on Win7 for the last month or so. I hate it.
Problems: 1) Stepping in the debugger is SOOOOOOO slow. I am thinking about going back to VS2005. 2) If you turn on Intellisense, it crashes like crazy very regularly. I've turned off intellisense, but it is a big loss in productivity to do so I strongly recommend against VS2008; do others have these problems?
