I just told Rob Caron, who helped me solve my uninstall and install problem of VS 2005 Beta 1 Refesh back at the begining of the month, that somehow my VS2005 EA was not showing any menu items at all related to Burton such as static code analysis, etc. I actually have been trying to install TFS since September 3rd right after this but ran into an interesting thing. I said the heck with three computers, I'll be like all these people here who believe all 3 layers of an app should go on one box. So I put all of TFS on one single Win2K3 VPC image and got all the way to the initial dialog to log in. At that point, TFS got wise to my act and and said that I was not logging onto a remote machine backend. Drats! So I gave up, had surgery and lately noticed that all the menu items for static analysis, performance, etc just weren't there on my VS2005 Enterprise Architect. Rob didn't tell me to do the repave but at this point I may as well. People may wonder why I have Whidbey on my main machine. My answer is right now I am only doing Whidbey development and not VS2003 at all so I may as well. This machine was so polluted with other alphas and betas that its past the point of saving anyhow. I'll just make sure to use Virtual Server 2005 and VPC images from now on for everything else.
