Clint @Ian2: i've spent the majority of the weekend reformatting machines. 3 asus, 3 samsung series 7, now onto the two hard ones, my work desktop and laptop. Need to track down all those apps i use once in a great while but still love having installed liked inssider for seeing why the wifi having issues.

Doctor Who I've got an older Dell laptop I'm thinking of putting Windows 8 Release Preview onto, but there's not a lot of free disk space on it. If I start to install Win8 Release Preview, will it give me a chance to wipe the HD clean, before installing it? Or will I have to have the 15 GB of free disk space before I start? (It's a 32-bit machine.)

JeeShen nice pick of the week!

jlomax If you said "I really like the advancements in VS 2012" then MAYBE YOU HAVEN'T SEE THE IDIOTIC ALL CAPS SHOUTING MENUS.
Seems like there is another shortage of pink paper in Redmond. HOW COULD YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT DESTROYING VISUAL STUDIO's UI?
-
Clint @jlomax: jeff, have you seen this? http://www.richard-banks.org/2012/06/how-to-prevent-visual-studio-2012-all.html
Looks like a pretty easy fix if that style doesn't fit your fancy.

Clint @Doctor Who: https://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/faq says 16 gig is the min for x86. I am currently sitting at 34 gigs with my domain joined machine with
- VS 2010
- VS 2012
- Windows Phone Dev Tooling
- SkyDrive (~2 gigs of stuff there)
- few smaller random things
-
RodAtWork @Clint: OK, I'd better free up some space before I give this a try. Thanks.
-
RodAtWork Clint, you mentioned something about a code snippet for entering dependency properties faster in XAML. What is that code snippet, please?
-
DennisDel propdp, then double TAB to generate the code.
-
Clint @RodAtWork: FYI if you use propdp in a silverlight project, you'll need to rename UIPropertyMetadata to PropertyMetadata
-
Doctor Who @DennisDel: Thanks.
-
Doctor Who @Clint: Thanks for that additional tip.
