Tips & tricks: how to use Visual Studio to the fullest
Description
The next major release of the .NET Framework, .NET 4.5, allows you to easily use Windows 8 technologies, like Windows Runtime, directly from .NET 4.5. Accessing your data is easier than ever with support for the newest features in SQL Server and support for WebSockets. Programs are more responsive, with the AWAIT keyword, faster ASP.NET startup and an improved server Garbage Collector. .NET 4.5 incorporates key customer feedback, with the newest MEF features, support for long running workflows with State Machines, and improved HTML 5 support in ASP.NET. In this overview talk, you’ll learn about all of these technologies, and get pointers to deeper dives where you can learn more.

Joshua Goodman Andrew -- .NET 4.5 isn't supported on Win2K3. Apologies for the confusing error message -- we'll make sure to have a better one. (This page http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/5a4x27ek(v=VS.110).aspx , in the Installation Requirements section, has the supported versions.)
An excellent place to report bugs like that (which may get a prompter response) is in the .NET forums: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-us/category/netframeworkvnext -

DathanL Great changes -- very excited to see this released. What is the best current estimate on release date for 4.5? If there isn't a known date, can you provide a "won't be before" type of response (i.e. won't be before 2012 Q2, etc.). Thanks.
