No.

No.
The unasked question of "Why are you not using or not upgrading?" can be answered s such -
I do not work, use nor target any MS-Windows product/OS/app/platform. No, not because of some zealot's "MS is Satan" rhetoric. I don't have a need nor do I have the customer base that needs/uses it. Solaris & Linux on the servers with Mac and Linux on the desktops. If VS were ever to support these platforms I'd be more than happy to use it.
No.

very nice article.. but i would like to know more about its framework standards, implementation based advantages and practical benefits for developers and testers.. where can i get those..
Want to know the advantages? I will give you a few. One, you can get a nice object diagram based on your code, and if you change your diagram, the code gets updated. If you change your code the diagram gets updated.
That is just a cool feature, not one of the reasons I would like to make the switch.
Why I want to make the switch from 2003 is that it no longer reformats your html, you can drag controls onto the html view and not just the design view. Intellisense is everywhere. You no longer have to bind to just a data source, now you can bind to a class! The list goes on and on!

We have a complete set of article/downloads in various stages in the publication pipeline - stay tuned.
11. Speed. I have a real time data-acquisition app that is now about 10x faster than the same app built with VS 2003.
I had used the VS 2005 Final Beta for about three weeks prior to the final release. I downloaded and installed the final release the day it was made available.
I absolutely love it!
I am planning to uninstall VS 2003 as soon as time permits.

Currently I?m using VS.NET 2002 and planned to upgrade to VS.NET 2005. My dilemma was those technical benefit would not get thru when we speak to our management. So is there any article or write-up that I can use to persuade my management to invest this upgrading.
