Following the Visual Studio / SQL Server 2005 / Biztalk launch event, the promised DVDs containing Visual Studio and SQL Server 2005 arrived this morning! This looks like a very clever piece of marketing by Microsoft to send these out just before Christmas, when people are likely to have a few days to install and try these out.
When I installed them, as usual selecting the "install everything" option and then tried to go into SQL Server Management Studio, the AdventureWorks sample database was not there.
I couldn't see this on the DVD, but found this for download at this location on the Microsoft site where it can be downloaded from and installed. You can then attach it using Management Studio.
