Mastering Web Development with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Review by R. Grattan

Very little about VS 2005!

I downloaded the eBook and within a couple of minutes realised that it only had one Chapter specifically abour VS 2005. As the first para in Chapter 1 point out:
"When you installed Visual Studio .NET 2005, you might have been surprised to find a bonus-Visual
Web Developer. This new product fills a gap in the Visual Studio product line and is Microsoft's recognition
that Web development has become a major part of the application market." So the book is about Visual Web Developer and should have been entitled as such.
There is a chapter later in the book about migrating your VS 2003 projects and the final chapter ( Chapter 25! ) has the following "This chapter addresses the code movement process from a little project to big project perspective.
It assumes that you've experimented with Visual Web Developer Express and now need the full capabilities
that Visual Studio can provide." Too little too late... Unless you want to find out about Visual Web Developer, buy something else.
