Scott Wiltamuth's Visual Studio blog

Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2!

I'm very excited to blog that Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 has been released.  Our team has been hard at work on this high-quality beta release, and are proud that it is now available.  We hope you enjoy it, and we look forward to your feedback!  Please see the Visual Studio 2005 Developer Center for full details.  A variety of SKU's are provided, including a collection of Express SKU's that are a snap to download and install.

If you have previously installed builds of Visual Studio 2005, aka Whidbey -- including CTP builds and Beta 1 builds -- please follow the uninstall instructions before installing Beta 2.

I ordered the DVD since I am not an MSDN subscriber. The charge was $0 with free shipping. Awesome!

Scott, is there a separate Professional version coming down the line? If not, should those of us who are eventually going to use Pro get the Standard or Team System edition?

It is not accepting orders to Canada! It keeps saying that i entered an invalid address. When i just change the country, keeping the other details intact, it proceeds. It's weird. Will someone look into this problem? Thanks.

For those with invalid address.

I'm also in canada and it give me an invalid address first with: 111 Pelhome (that not a real address it's just for illustration) as address. I read somewhere that you need to put street in so I try with 111 Pelhome St, still invalid

I put my address into www.mapquest.com and it give me 111 Rue Pelhome (I'm in QC) so I input 111 Rue Pelhome in the form and it accept it now I'm waiting for my copy.

I'm also getting the Invalid Address error, in Canada also. I know the address is exactly where I am situated, so it's not making a whole lot of sense to me.
