   Now that Visual Studio 2005 has been out a while I'm hoping that someone can   
   give me some insight on what version to upgrade to (standard or   
   professional).  I went out on Microsoft's site and looked at the comparison   
   chart and didn't find anything really significant between the two versions   
   from my perspective.  I have Visual Basic Professional 6.0 and have written   
   a few standalone programs.  No network, no databases just a few simple   
   programs for myself and others that perform simple but very specialized   
   tasks.  Right now I believe that upgrading to the Standard Edition is   
   probably my best bet but I also thought upgrading to XP Home Edition instead   
   of XP Pro Edition was the right decision too (grin).  Can anyone give me a   
   hard reason why it would be better to to upgrade to the pro version over the   
   standard version?
