a Microsoft product like Visual Studio or SQL Server editions. Probably you heard about the
Visual Studio 2010 launch events that Microsoft has announced the new VS2010 product family.

environment) for .NET Framework, I download Visual Studio 2010 for Visual Studio 2010
Ultimate edition from MSDN. Using the Visual Studio 2010 ISO disc image I installed the
VS2010 Ultimate edition on my computers side by side with Visual Studio 2008 and VS2005
without any problem.
If you want to install the free trial versions of Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 editions, it is
possible to start the setup process by using Visual Studio 2010 installer as a web installer with
