“Reaching out to the several million non-professional developers who probably felt snubbed by the past two Visual Studio releases, Microsoft this week revealed that it would ship simpler, lightweight versions of Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 next year. Beta versions of the new offerings, which will be sold under the “Express” moniker, are now available for free download; Microsoft says the final versions of these products, along with the more professional versions of Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005, will be available by mid-2005.”

• The secret's out!

  Hi! I'm Paul Yuknewicz, Program Manager for the team that designed and brought you Visual Basic Express and the general Express Edition line. I'm super excited to be onsite at the TechEd Europe keynote watching the crowd see Express and MSDN Product Feedback Center for the first time. I'm also proud to kick off the Express blog so that we can chat about all things Express. It's a great feeling to finally be able to talk about it with you!
  Express Editions of Visual Studio are all about enabling communities of learning developers, hobbyists, and enthusiast to get started quickly creating cool .NET applications. This is done by providing a totally light weight product: from a 35-80 mb download, to a 5 minute install time, to a simplified and nimble IDE (developer environment). It's easy to get started using resources on the start page that help you build applications, learn how to program (if you're not a maven already), and connect to the community. You can see for yourself right now by downloading Express from here (http://msdn.microsoft.com/Express/).

• Visual Studio and SQL Server Express Editions Announced

  This morning at TechEd Europe, we announced the introduction of "Express" editions of a number of Visual Studio tools and SQL Server. The Express products are lightweight, easy to use, easy to learn tools for hobbyists, enthusiasts, and students who want to build dynamic Windows applications and Web sites. We also announced the release of Visual Studio 2005 Beta 1.

• SQL Server Express - Initial thoughts (by yag)

  Man, blogging is addictive. I'm supposed to be paying attention in this session... Anyway, wanted to note a few things about SQL Express because I haven't seen a lot about this online yet - though I expect that to change.
  First - some of the capabilities:

  • Support for XCopy style deployment
  • No workload governor
  • Support for databases up to 4Gb in size
  • Support for up to 50 instances
  • Only supports 1 processor
  • Only supports 512 Mb of RAM

Basic Express and SQL Server Express 07/08/2004 11:46 PM
A problem that afflicts me (and I've noticed many of my brethren) is the need to create a program to solve a task when there are already many perfectly suitable programs on the market for free or for very little cash. The standard justification in my mind is that there isn't a program that does things the exact way I want them to. Now realistically, I tend to pick on programs that are within reach. After all, even if Word didn't suit my needs, I have no intention of writing my own word processing program from scratch. (Although at times, I keep thinking I could build a better version of Outlook ... yet I digress).

KDevelop vs. Microsoft Visual Studio

Over the past few years, Linux has been hitting Windows hard in different places and, blow by blow, won points against the OS behemoth. Good application software is an important selling point for any operating system, and good development tools are crucial to those writing application software. The leading desktop operating system, Microsoft Windows, has a strong integrated development environment (IDE) in Visual Studio .Net, while the upstart Linux platform's KDE environment has KDevelop. Let's pitch them against each other and see which ends up the last IDE standing.
