In a different video I talked about using Virtual PC to run Visual Studio for testing purposes and learning purposes and I talked about how you could download the Virtual Hard Disk, and you're good to go and all that. If you're one of those folks who don't have enough memory on your machine or you're trying to run this off of a laptop and test it and you don't have enough processor speed and memory and so forth, you can still just download this and install it on your machine and I just want to kind of show you that because there is a little caveat here, some things to watch for. First of all, go to Microsoft's Home Page and if you just do a search on Visual Studio, search that, it will take you to some links and you should be able to click them. Now, one of the things that you're going to see, Microsoft right now is working on Visual Studio 2010 and so you may have to kind of really look around and go around it because there's a lot of stuff out there on 2010. If you will look on Product Information, if you just kind of go out here and search around you can get some downloads for this. And so notice, when I went to Product Education, or Product Information I should say, there's a Try It link and you'll just have to look around. So, I clicked on the Try It link and here we go. They have some cool stuff here. First of all out on the website they have some Virtual Labs that you can do online. This is kind of some cool stuff. It'll add to what you learn here. And then you can download some Trial Visual Studio software, OK, and so notice I can download Ð there's a Virtual Hard Drive here that I can download, and then I can also download ISOs, so notice I can download the Visual Studio Team System, Team Suite as an ISO, the Team Server as an ISO, or just download Visual Studio Professional as an ISO. OK, and this is going to be pretty easy. We'll go out and just grab this thing and notice if I click on Download here it's going to just download the file. Once I get it I'll have an ISO, I can burn it to a DVD and then install it just like normal. Also, if you're using Virtual PC you can just capture an ISO right out of Virtual PC. Look at the Help files on that. But you have to be kind of careful these days because if you just put in Visual Studio and go out there Microsoft's really starting to market Visual Studio 2010 although it's in beta release and months, and months, and months away from getting out there, but I just didn't want you to download the wrong one and try to look at it and say, "Man, this looks different," because 2010's going to look different. Once you get your head around this you'll probably want to go grab that and take a look at what's coming next. So, anyway, grab you a copy of Visual Studio 2008, load it, this will run on a laptop just fine. I run it on my laptop and I've got, I think, 2 gigs maybe, yeah, 2 gigs of memory on that laptop, so you'll be fine. So anyway, I just wanted to make sure that you get the right thing so that you can start to learn this and get your hands on it yourself.
