Would you use it to build a project? (C++, in particular)
Is it at all legal?
해결책
It has "go live" license.

I am not commenting about VS2010 per se but in general the Beta tag would cause me to hesitate to depend on it to build a production application. I am sure that it is quite stable and will hardly change before the final release but...there is a chance. The beta is permission for Microsoft to change things if they discover bugs etc.
Is there a particular feature that you require that you cannot do without until the final release? I am a cautious person so maybe its only me. But I usually tend to wait for final release of software before betting my applications on them.
I spent some time working with both Beta 1 and Beta 2. Neither me nor my developers experienced any "stability" problems. It does not mean that there aren't any of course.
The reason I did it this early is new and absolutely wonderful editor extensibility model - to do all did (code completion, syntax colorization, etc.) in the old model is prohibitively difficult.
I've been building and shipping a C++ application with a 500,000 line codebase for a couple of months with VC2010 Beta 2. No issues so far, no regression. Pretty good, the intellisense for C++ finally works flawlessley. So I would say, very stable.
