So not (quite) total crippleware. No. Definitely not a total crippleware. It's a fully usable Lite edition. Most .NET development will probably work well with it, even if you can't play with MFC, drivers, advanced graphics etc. It's just that it is a hobbyist solution. A professional developer should find it meaningful to get a commercial edition. Alas, Microsoft have very strange views on how to slice the features between the different commercial editions, putting the additional tools for quality and optimization in very expensive packages which is contraproductive for their own OS. |
