Software

I think it really fucking sucks that I have to bust my ass to upgrade my software. It is going to cost me a small fortune to do it. I need to upgrade my copy of Visual Studio 2008 to version 2010. I need a new copy of windows. Then there is all the shit that comes with that. I need to make sure my copy of Nod Antivirus will work and everything else I have. I think I am going to stick with office 2007 for now, especially since that would cost a mint by itself.

Visual Studio is about 600 bucks, I might just use the express edition.

Windows 7 is about 100 to 135 bucks. However I might have a key that works already, so I would just need to get a copy of it.

Anything that doesn't work with windows 7 will live on Virtual PC 2007. Hopefully 2010 comes out soon.

I need to find the time to plan an upgrade for this. It would be a big pain in the ass to do, but Vista sucks hardcore and is driving me mad with the insane amount of memory it uses for no reason.
