tlhIn'toq is correct, Visual Studio 2008 and 2010. I still use 2008 for some situations while trying to move more towards 2010 over time. Most of my other projects involve using Notepad++ for development or a virtual Linux machine.

Love the view, nooblet. I'm actually moving back to California and will be passing through San Fransisco. Looks beautiful.

Ah, I use to use notepad++ briefly but there are certain settings on there that I'm unhappy with and have since moved off. Move back? Where did you move to? What part of Cali are you moving back to?

Okay, so that one I posted before was my work desktop, and heres my home one. The Hitler vs. Churchill rock, paper, scissors was a little dark and this is a lot brighter and cheery, yet still keeping the creepy theme.

I'm curious... In what situations would you still be in VS08 that you couldn't use VS10 for?
Our only issue was buying updated versions of add-ons to go *with* the VS10 upgrade: InstallShield, DotFusctor, and so on. But once we shifted into VS10 I have no reason to go backwards.

Mostly XNA development, since XNA 4 is still a CTP release. On a recent project I found that MySQL Connect wasn't working for me in 2010. It wasn't a big deal to use 2008 for the project. I'm open to PMs if you'd like to continue this conversation. I don't want to bring this thread too far off topic.

I know that the month is almost over, but here's my minimalistic desktop. I always find that simplicity helps me to focus.

I love this desktop!
I think it would be perfect for my laptop (named AlbaProwler)

I'll have to post my desktops later...before the end of the month!

Never seen Dark Angel.
The laptop is white (Alba -> Latin for white)...and it's always on the prowl with me: AlbaProwler :)

See how assumptions can be wrong.
In Dark Angel, Jessica Alba plays a character with cat DNA spliced into her own. Giving her great reflexes, superior night vision and so on. Oh... and going in heat every few weeks, giving some comic relief to the show. So it just all went together in my head: cat, alba, prowl

This worked out nicely for my laptop. Just something I shot two weeks ago on a business trip to Alaska. Thank goodness for an overcast day. I didn't have to Photoshop a thing.

Weird......."Dark Angle" and cat DNA don't really go together in my mind.

Thanks, I got the wallpaper from Social Wallpapering. Here's a direct link to the one in my screenshot: http://img1.socwall....32332-17235.jpg.
