I've not used any RC version before. Some insight on this would be appreciated:

1. How long does a RC version carry out working?
2. What happens (are the options) when it stops?
3. Can it be uninstalled without adverse effects on earlier version of VS?

Thanks.

Mine says 116 days.
Dunno if it's a fixed date expiry or 125 days from install.

Buy it or uninstall and maybe go with the free version and less
functionality.

Yes

vs2010 rc doesn't have silverlight in it and I would imagine the full
version will have that and one or two other things added.
So you would probably uninstall and install the full version.

Mine has silverlight 3? Silverlight 4 doesn't work yet in the rc version
(without hacks).

Buy it or use the Express editions.

Yes, they are all independant.
