Visual Studio 2012 Released!

Finally! The next version of Visual Studio is ready for prime time. I don’t know about you, but VS2010 was a terrible release. It was heavy, clunky and hung/crashed repeatedly.

VS2012 is a breath of fresh air. It is snappy and stable – not to mention the tonne of new features.

Enjoy!
