The Trouble With Excitement is...

...that we don't always double check things. I was very happy to see Visual Studio appear in my mail the day after I was reading about the code metrics tools in 2008, and neglected to notice that these features were available in the Team Suite, while I had been sent the normal old Professional version. As of right now, Team Suite only seems available to me as a 90-day trial, so I'll probably get that later on to give it a shot.

The lesson is: when dealing with multiple product versions, always check the fine print. As it is, VS2008 looks like a healthy and stable upgrade, so I'm looking forward to poking around in there.

This doesn't count as my daily post, I've got more to talk about later on.
