Helpful links for the Visual Studio 2010 CTP

Today we published a new CTP Virtual PC image of Visual Studio 2010. I hope you enjoy this pre-release as much as I have been! It's still early since it's a CTP, but I think it's our best CTP yet. I think you'll like the walkthroughs which are included in the VPC image.

I've authored two blog entries which might help you when downloading and running this VPC image.

• A More Reliable and Faster Download Experience for VS2010/ VS08 VPC's (this is an update to an older blog post I wrote which now includes links to the new VPC)
• Visual Studio 2010 CTP VPC: Dealing with Activation Messages
