Visual Studio 2005 RTM - Bugs Bugs Everywhere?

So I come in this morning and start catching up on the 339 unread rss feed posts in my reader. After 10 minutes, I’ve already come across 4 great developers who have uncovered bugs in the VS 2005 RTM :|

I myself haven't gotten very deep into RTM yet because I've been so busy doing other stuff, but somebody even mentioned that they thought Beta 2 was more stable than RTM. I'd hate to go look at the MSDN Feedback for VS2005 at the end of this week. "Yes, we realize that is a bug. It will be fixed in the next major release." Ouch.

No doubt that as I continue catching up, this list is going to increase, but hopefully not significantly. We’ll see. I'll continue to add to this list, so check back periodically.

I have also seen occasional IDE crashes. I have not isolated it to a single source. I have noticed a potential breaking change "feature" in regards to reflection. See http://devauthority.com/blogs/jwooley/archive/2005/11/02/597.aspx

I have VS 2005 installed on both of my PCS (one toshiba laptop and one Dell 400sc desktop). The windows XP on 400SC is a fresh installtion. That means, I have only few applications there. On both of these two computers, VS 2005 crashes. On the laptop, I see the blue screen; one the desktop, I see nothing but the blank screen and then BIOS....
