Apparently the new Visual Studio Express (11) will only allow Windows Metro applications, and you can only distribute them trough Microsoft's official store.

Discuss.

Like most of you might know, there will eventually be a "Visual Studio Express 2012 for Desktop", as they seem to name it. If I'm right, it will be out a little later and apparently the only option while waiting will be to use VS Express 2010. Case closed ?

As Korgiuq points out, this is simply not true.

What Korguiq said. I've been at the Windows 8 premiere club, darkside bakery, and soon an windows 8 excellence lab. I know the lead technology evangelists from MS germany, and they confirmed that there will be Visual Studio 2012 for desktop software. Any questions or thread closed? :)

I've found that threads like this become considerably more entertaining if I add a bit of this to the background.

I simply hate threads that add "Discuss." at the end.

Discuss.

Am I supposed to be discussing here, or posting My Little Pony images? The original post wasn't very clear in its instructions.
