> Are there any features which make VS 2010 easier to use for us?

I don't do much with the IDE besides the basics of writing the code and 
building it, so I can't really say if it makes anything easier on us. I think 
the change is just going to be doing the same thing on a newer version.

The change is more driven from keeping up with what everyone else is using. I 
did a VS2010 port at my old job over a year ago because we needed it, and CCP 
games (Kristjan) moved to VS2010 even before that.

I will look through and see what it may provide that we could take advantage 
of, but I don't remember seeing much that we could use. C# gets all of the 
goodies, then C++ is in second place, and all we in C world really get is a new 
CRT version. However, if we didn't change to 2010 now, due to our release 
schedule we'd be stuck with VS2008 until at least 2014, which would be at least 
two VS versions behind by then.
