I agree that C# is great, but I have many gripes about the Visual Studio IDE.
Here are just a few little things. If you rename an event in Visual Studio you don't rename the existing one. You get a new one. If you delete the code for an event the delegate assignment doesn't get removed. You have to use a toolbar button to indent and outdent a block of code instead of Ctrl+Alt+I and Ctrl+Alt+U in Delphi. If you stuff up and miss a bracket, brace or semicolon Visual Studio may decide to unindent and rearrange the rest of your code to match the mistake. If you then add in the missing bracket, brace or semicolon it won't then put it back to how it was. Visual Studio remembers what files you had open, but not necessarily the order. I haven't actually used the Delphi 8 IDE so I can't be sure all of the this the same as D6. All in all C# is great but the IDE has been sooo frustrating.
