This is cool

I was just browsing around on the VS.NET 2005 Beta site, when I cam across something really interesting. The Online MSDN library for the beta has been setup to make finding help really easy. Give this a try:

It works for any namespace/class in the beta...

I really hope they keep this after release..

XP SP2 all done.

I finally finnished installing XP Service Pack 2 on all of the machines that I look after for all my family and friends. I have not encountered a single problem with any of the machines.

I also took the chance to change the configuration of all the machines. Each user now runs a restricted account. So far I have not had a single complaint.. I have tought all my friends and family to use the "Run As" option (right mouse click on application icon) for installing applications (and running applications that need admin access, which is very few).

In general, I thinks it's been a very good experience and think that MS have really done their homework on this one...
