One of *MANY* reasons to upgrade. Or, wait until April and go straight
to VS 2010.
Actually, VS2010 RC1 is available now and, while there's likely to be at
least some minor fixes between now and the actual release, the RC will
be upgradeable to the released version, and should work quite well already.
But yes, even if one simply installs the free Visual C# Express 2008
version, that would be a major step up from any 2005 version.
And the installation of either is not so onerous that the possibility of
having to reinstall yet again in April is really that big of a deal.
The VS versions are happy to live side-by-side, and of course for
someone who's been using the 2005 version today, they might even find
that they don't upgrade to 2010 the instant it's available.
