New Visual Studio Version

Does anybody know if the new Visual Studio (Visual Studio.NET) will be available as an upgrade to Visual Studio 6?? If so, for what price??

Prices hasn't been determent yet.
But I'm pretty sure that you can count on that there will be a upgrade from previous version to a lower price.

Anybody know what Visual Studio 2000 is? It's on one CD, someone I know brought it back from Japan or Korea or something. I have a copy. Any ideas?

I think you mean Visio 2000.

There is no Visual Studio 2000.

I am not sure what visio 2000 is though.

HarryW: I think you may have a pirated copy of VS. Asia is notorious for that (I should know. I've lived there for 7 years)

Visual Studio 6.0 is actually Visual Studio 98.

And Visio 2000 is a flowcharting/diagramming tool.

Hehehe, you think? :D

I haven't been ripped off or anything, I got it for free ;)

I think it's just VS 6, with VS 2000 written on it.

Harry,You got one too?

I have one that says Visual Studio 2000 SECOND EDITION.But it includes the 6 version of Microsoft's VB ,VC++, VFoxPro, VInterDev and Inprise(formerly Borland)'s VDBase 5.5 and 7.0.

btw,I got it in bangkok.CHina is more notorius for piration : you can get VB in chinese for less tahn 1$ !!

WOW less then 1 dollar???? can you get the english version for the same price?

Heh. You can get anything in Thailand, for basically nothing, but the problem is its illegal.

Visual Studio 6 = 98.

In thailand basically the charge is about 150 bath per CD-ROM.VS is one CD so its 150 B but MSDN Library 4 VS is 2 cds so thats 300 B.Besides programming tools you can get practically ANY CD (games,VCDs,MP3 CDS,ACD...) for the same price.And some of the games even include mauals.But as mLewis said : its illegal!:D

Microsoft is naming the next version of Visual Studio this: Visual Studio.NET

I have a list of more than 250 sites and such that track Visual Studio.NET and other .NET stuff at http://www.devx.com/dotnet/resources/

Hope that helps.
