This disscution is in relate to Visual Studio part 1 History Video 

 

Hi,

I've seen the first part of this Visual Studio history videos and there are interesting things in it, but there is much more to history - people talk there like they act in a sealed vacuum without Java, Unix, Linux, Mac, Google and many other companies and products all influent Microsoft and Visual Studio.

If you make history film, make it on how history was, not how you wanted it to be.

 

Microsoft was the first one to create developers community? are you kidding me?

Also where does COM disappear? it is, till this very day, one of the most fundamental technologies that all of Microsoft product really on, .NET 4.0 has new features specifically for COM interop.

 

Thank you,

Ido.

Not all of what you listed existed in the early days (Java, Google for instance), while others would have had zero impact on VisualStudio (Unix, Linux, Mac, Google). And yes, Microsoft was the first to create a developer community at the corporate level. There were user groups, sure, but that was hardly the same thing that they were talking about. Pay attention to context.  This is Part 1, and you're surprised there's more than what was covered here?
