Like them or dislike them, they are going to be with us for a long
time to come.

Forget about how it all started, and antitrust issues, the
productivity increase I experience on a yearly basis is incredible.
Not to mention my enjoyment and necessary practice in their flight

I trust the VStudio release is more stable this time. The beta had
me rebuilding my machine last year, and I have stayed with VStudio
2003 since then. But in fairness, our company policy does not permit
me to create a system restore point - grrr. I should start following
VStudio forums again.

By the way, I agree on the usefulness and variety on this forum.
Dian and others, sorry that I have been so quiet. I am swamped at
work, and for some reason I am not allowed to post from my email
addresses anymore. So I am typing this on Google groups. Does not
aid my productivity...
