So, I downloaded the Beta 2 and already installed it. I had to go with a Virtual Machine as setup wouldn't go without SP2 on my XP and there is no way Im installing the SP2. I know, baaad me...
Anyway, first impression - the setup went very smooth and VS got new nicer looks (as expected for a Beta 2). More details? Common, I just ran it first time about 5 minutes ago! :)
I'm off to play with the Beta 2! To be continued...
