Visual Studio 2010 launched on my HP Mini
Before my trip to India, I bought an HP Mini 2140 netbook. This is a beautiful thing. It weighs only 1.8 kg. Supports a maximum resolution of 1024 x 576 (normal in width but shortened in height). It has a keyboard of almost normal size. My favorite feature is that it can work for about 8 hours - which is pretty long.
It comes preloaded with Windows XP. But I downloaded and installed Windows 7RC on it. There are no DVDs or CDs in the mini. I copied the Windows 7 image to a USB stick using Daemon Tools. And installed Windows 7 from a USB flash drive .
Next, I installed Windows Live Sync (also known as foldershare). Windows Live Sync synchronizes files from the My Documents \ Everywhere folder between my laptop, desktop and netbook. I can change documents on my netbook in the Microsoft bus while moving to work, later they are automatically synchronized with the computer at my workplace.
And finally, I put Visual Studio 2010 on my netbook. I picked up a build. Most likely, my netbook is not suitable even for the minimum required configuration, but Visual Studio 2010 works fine.

I'm not sure that when working with Visual Studio on a netbook, the Atom processor of my HP Mini squeezes everything out of a netbook. And, definitely, you should not run multiple applications when running Visual Studio. However, this example shows that you can quite productively spend the time spent in an airplane or bus, for the development.
During the VS2010 installation, there was even a moment when it seemed to me that it would end in failure, because The installer reported that my netbook does not fit the minimum permission requirements (the height was 3 pixels less than the required one), however, I ignored the warning and the installation continued successfully.
Well, it pleases the fact that Visual Studio 2010 was launched on a netbook, looking forward to Mon, May 18, to merge beta 1 .
