After VS2005 SP1 crashes enough times, it stops offering to send crash dumps
to Microsoft. But it doesn't stop crashing.

When VS2005 SP1 reloads a project after a crash, it still displays a
reminder "ha ha, you forgot to spend 30 minutes doing an Analyse in
SourceSafe". Then it still proceeds to reload the project that needs
analysis, without letting the user abort and run the analysis before
reloading.

VS2005 SP1 is a fine CTP, just like VS2005 RTM was. The only mistakes are
in calling it a product, charging for it, and letting it be used in
production environments.

With reference to the editor, you're absolutely right. However the C++
compiler is by far MS's best yet.
