Title: Great start for this new "version"!!
Product review: The ease of use compared to VS 6 and before is the first thing one notices. So many great controls that make programming more fun because much of the code is well within those controls.Only 4 stars though because of the amount of time and effort that was necessary getting my PC up to speed to be able to run VS.NET. Of course it will work with older setups and less memory - but I figured now was a good time to upgrade to Windows XP Pro. It also isn't supported by anything older than Windows 98 as I understand. Also no drawing tools - something new called GDI+ in which you draw programmatically - I am having to get used to that!I am an MCP (VB6 Desktop) and a webmaster and between VB.NET, ADO.NET and ASP.NET, the programming future looks exciting.To help you get started - go to the LearnVisualStudio.NET web site which has great video lessons that helped me a lot.Give that and new VS.NET a try!
