ha ha ha.

are you really going to attempt and improve longhorn? =]

i think you should come up with a creative response to that defect, and send it back.

hahah i'm not on longhorn, but i wonder how many of these they see.

nope, can't be creative...it's customer-reported so i can't say "are you on crack?!?! stop wasting my time with this!!" we're just gonna have to ask for more details...

haha yeah. actually you can report any bugs too! so any complaints about VS Arch? make it as useful or as dumb as you want...we HAVE to look at it. it's some customer feedback page on the msdn site.

alison, can you fix this bug? Just read my mind through telepathy or voodoo, and fix it, and let me know when you are done.
