Visual Studio Express 2008 (Orca)

I installed the new Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2008 edition which I got last week. I didn’t install it straight away because I was busy. My initial thoughts on the new version are pretty good. It seems to make my program, which was converted from 2005 to 2008 faster. Although it is only in the miliseconds it is noticable.

I’m not sure if it was me but it installed a few things without me telling it to like the .Net 3.5 Framework and SQL Compact Express server tools. Other than the speed increase I do not see much more visual enhancement from the old version but I haven’t played with it for very long.
