I've noticed that VS 2003 (in my MSDN subscription) only has a 'prereq' CD
and then 2 other CDs (plus another Visio CD). This is a much smaller number
of CDs than VS 2002. Is this the full-blown release? I ask not only
because the number if CDs is less, but also there is a statement in the MSDN
letter (that accompanies the udpates) that 'This version of Visual Studio
..NET 2003 does not require a key'. So, I thought it might be a beta or
something even though the CDs don't say beta. Any help would be much
appreciated.

Thanks,

Tim Rogers

I have the $29 upgrade version, and can confirm that Visual Studio
takes 2 CDs. You also get 3 documentation CDs labeled MSDN Library.


I guess the additional CDs are a "regular" part of the MSDN
subscription.
