Saw that. My outsourced team is barely smart enough to use Subversion.

I have a big gripe with the new Visual Studio. They took out Setup projects and now they're pushing InstallShield, which has sucked for about 20 years. I can crank out a simple installer for most projects in minutes and lots of our legacy projects have their own installers. What a bonehead move by MS. I've been a rabid fan boy since DOS 1.0 and lately they've been starting to lose me a little.

Got it, thanks. Still not as convenient as having everything fully integrated into VS. I don't understand why MS dropped support for those types of projects.
