First Look At Visual Studio 2010 Beta 1

snydeq writes "InfoWorld's Martin Heller takes VS2010 Beta 1 for a test drive and finds the upgrade promising, particularly with regard to improved thread debugging and a revamped UI. But the biggest enhancements have to do with parallel programming, Heller writes. 'I'm not sure that I've completely grasped the power of the new .Net Framework and native C++ support for task and data parallelism in VS2010, but what I've seen so far is impressive.' Heller points to intriguing parallel programming samples posted to CodePlex and offers numerous screenshots of VS2010 Beta 1 functionality. He also notes that the beta still lacks support for ASP.Net MVC, smart devices, and the .Net Micro Framework."

For a living i've to code in .net & windows(well, there's some legacy in unix servers too but that's another story), and let me tell you: Visual Studio is awesome, i lets you develop some quick and dirty apps just easy, the intellisense feature and the forms designer are some of the best out there(yeah, i know, there's netbeans and qt designer, but francally, the netbeans designer, aka matisse has it's issues, the qt counterpart don't know much), but nothing that i know beats Vs.
