Hi Bruce, etc. The below news is somewhat distressing for those of us who have no Internet connection at all on our development workstations and have to use others (non-development machines) to get such access. Is downloading the /layout way and then (say) moving a directory or something going to work, or does /layout change other things (registry)? If it is going to work, will the procedure be well documented? If not, what do you propose people in my sort of situation to do?
(And if Visual Studio 2011 works either of those ways we're going to be in a world of hurt here ...)

When you run the bootstrapper without /layout it still does all the registry operations etc. but will use the local files instead of downloading them again. -- Bruce Cran ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
