My left foot has blisters...
I've had the new CTP about 12 hours so far and I've been sleeping 6 of those hours. ;)
I'll post on any differences I see. Frankly, I'm more distressed about support (or lack there-of) in VB.NET for the nullable types (as supported in C#). First, I think a change this dramatic destabilizes the build. We're now under 83 days before they plan to release. They have to be nuts to make a change that big in the Framework and expect it to be stable enough to ship by Nov 7. We can only assume they know what they're doing--or they have another plan. Perhaps they expect to ship a preliminary build and a service pack in a month or two to fix the issues they couldn't get done on time.
