Journey into C#
Being a moderatly to quite skilled programmer since 15 years, the past four years PHP exclusive, I have for various reasons decided to take up C#. This blog is for sharing my ups and downs with fellow C# coders, beginners and pros alike.

MSDN - Not for everyone?
My trusty web side-kick, KlipFolio, alerted me to the fact that ActiveWin had news about the new Visual Studio 2005 Beta. Since I am about to start from scratch I figured that I could do this with the new IDE instead of the 2003 version.

I was wrong.

After trying to sign up for an MSDN account with my .NET passport for about 20 minutes I gave up hope about downloading the file. Without actually checking into the problem any closer I can't say if I was the wrong kind of subscriber or if it was just me being stupid. 8)

So I guess I'll have to make do with the 2003 version of VS .NET. Unless someone tells me how to get the 2005 Beta that is.

Comments:
After some more rummaging about on the MSDN site I found out that the kind of subscription I have is for newsletters only and not for the actual MSDN service. Which I kinda figured.

So no 2005 Beta for me.
 
You can download the Visual Studio 2005 Express Beta Products if you wan´t too.
You can find them here: http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/express/

Thanks for the tip. How much do they differ from "the real deal"?
