Visual Studio 2010 was released yesterday

Unfortunately, I have just checked the MSDNAA site and they still do not have the release version of Visual Studio 2010. They only have an old Beta2. I would recommend that if you do not have access to Visual Studio 2010 through other means, that you keep an eye on the MSDNAA web site and see if VS2010 becomes available. If and when it becomes available, I would not recommend that you install it while you are finishing CS 503. Download it and save it somewhere and when the course is done, you can knock yourself out :)

My Plans for this Blog

By
I intend to post new things I learn or run into or that come to mind on at least a weekly basis. Sometimes may be daily. I'm planning on starting after the course ends so I do disturb the peace of the final project. You have options to unsubscribe yourself from this Blog site completely and you are welcome to stay as you fell like it. It's all up to you. I also would be open and willing to respond to those tough questions you may run into assuming the volume of questions would be manageable...... Knowing you guys, I think it will be very quite in this neighborhood.
