LOL, was joking. Anyway when you get a chance (after reaching home), post something about their presentation, how was the demos, what are all new things in the server they mentioned, same in VS etc.

Anyway excellent live post. Congrats.

Actually I started my career in VB, but that was VB6, yes, long back. So was just curious what are all new things there in VS new version. Happy you could attend it and happy to know the details.

I too expected full versions for everyone, but alas, too good to be true. But event was good, though a bit less coverage of visual studio 08, SQL server took quiet a lotta time. Movie was average. Everything else was good including lunch :). And ya, Shantanu, it was lovely meeting you there :)
