I just downloaded the WPF/E CTP bits (a good starting point for all things WPF/E is the new Dev Center ). If you are a C# dev who has waited for the CTP as eagerly as I did, be prepared for a slight disappointment: right now you can only use Javascript...
2005 was an amazing year… GhostDoc became really popular (the VS2005 version alone had over 6000 downloads since the release in early November). The PDC was a great experience, and visiting Microsoft before that was a lot of fun. Being part of the “Show...
