Question
How stable is Visual Studio 2010 compared with VS2008 SP1 on Windows 7?
Solution
So far, VS2010 is only available as an early CTP (from last November) in a VPC, so it's not really a relevant comparison. It's for looking at, not using.
OTHER TIPS
I cannot speak for VS2010 on Windows 7, but I have been using VS2008sp1 on Windows 7 as my primary development machine and it works great.
Considering I've never gotten VS2008 to crash on ANY OS, id say its hard to get any better than that. Granted I may not have put it through its full paces, but I have hit a wide range of abilities over the past year or so since moving to VS2008
EDIT: Nevermind I just remembered crashing it when a former coworker insisted on using Source Safe, which ran off a laggy server, the lag alone brought VS2008 down.
