DiGiovanni : Web Development with SharpDevelop, Web Matrix, and. Visual Studio.NET 2003 makes development a whole lot easier than it ever was before. But what if you have to develop a web application and you do not have the power of VS.NET 2003 available to you? I would hate to be without Intellisense (I’m spoiled), debug support, and many of the other features that VS.NET 2003 provides. There is a way to accomplish this developmental challenge with the following three tools: SharpDevelop, the free open source .NET IDE, has just been released as Fidalgo RC1 (6/16/2004). SharpDevelop’s IDE is very similar to VS.NET 2003; it even has a version of Intellisense. Web Matrix, the free ASP.NET IDE was released by Microsoft to support ASP.NET development. DebugCLR (DbgCLR.exe) is available in the .NET Framework SDK or with Visual Studio. Code snippets in this example are in C#, but can be modified for VB.NET.

According to CNET News reporter Ina Fried , Microsoft might release Windows 7 in 2009, although the company's representatives still won't say whether that rumor is true. In conjunction with that report, Fried also said that Microsoft is putting the "finishing touches on a program to offer Vista buyers a free or low-cost update to Windows 7. That program could kick off as early as July, sources said.

" TechArp published what it says are Microsoft's latest plans for its Windows 7 upgrade. The publication says that anyone who purchases Vista between July 1, 2009, and January 31, 2010, will be eligible for a free upgrade to Windows 7. Windows Vista Home Premium users will receive Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows Vista Business users will get Windows 7 Professional, and Windows Vista Ultimate users will receive Windows 7 Ultimate. That's expensive. This time around, Microsoft should set a flat fee of $50 for a Windows 7 upgrade. What would it hurt? Ajaxian.
