I just can't do without at least VS2010 Professional. Anyone knows of any schemes, e.g. wearing VS2010 TShirt + Hat for a year everyday to get a discount? Hope VS2010 Jumber is included for winter! Your colleagues may want you to wash it before the year is up :^) Hell I testify to nonbelivers how VS2010 has made programmig fun again. How? WHat is the *single* most exciting thing about it? Any ideas? Thank you Regards Arjang -- Meski Going to Starbucks for coffee is like going to prison for sex. Sure, you'll get it, but it's going to be rough - Adam Hills
Re: Cheapest way to get VS2010 Professional?
*What is the *single* most exciting thing about it?* For me, it's the stability. I've been using it since it came out and I've not yet been able to make it crash. Previous versions would crash several times per day for me. Apart from that, the database tools are a big improvement over previous versions. This is, seriously, the BEST edition of VS that I have ever used. Lots of little things all add up to make a great dev experience. Previous versions were all like death by a thousand cuts because of all the little annoyances. Most of these have been removed. If you are able to, upgrade today. You'll thank yourself for it. If you can add Resharper 5, even better. Grant

RE: Cheapest way to get VS2010 Professional?
If you are buying R# 5.0 it is compatible with VS 2008 and VS 2010 (although there are separate downloads), so no worries there. I'm assuming the R# 4.0 in the last sentence is a typo. If you are unsure you can try R# 5.0 for 30 days free (with VS 2008 and/or VS 2010) and if you like it then buy it and just plug in the registration key and keep going.

I'm poised to buy R# 5.0 after reports in here last week that years of stability problems are generally solved. But now I'll be upgrading to VS2010 in the near future, so can anyone assure me that R# 4.0 and VS2010 play well together. Greg This email is intended for the named recipient only.

Hi Grant, What database tools are you talking about? I was happy about stability and new features in the editor, now I have to chase up the database tools! any links about them?

Re: Rules Engine for dotnet
Depending on how complex your rules are you could always create a DSL in Boo: http://www.manning.com/rahien/ http://www.manning.com/rahien/I've never tried it personally but most rules engines I've come across required you express concepts in really unnatural XML with either bad or no tooling. Something that looks English-like would be far better in my opinion.
