Mandatory Visual Studio 2008 has been released blog post

Well Visual Studio 2008 has been released either a few days early ( the money was on thursday ) , or a few days late ( the rest of the money was for the TechED Dev Keynote ). Which every way it is a good sight , Microsoft has put on extra download ability to help with all the eager developers who need the power NOW NOW NOW ;)

Soma has the official word on the subject.

The express editions of Visual Studio 2008 are available here for FREE.

Also sneaking in under the radar is the latest CTP of SQL Server 2008
