Microsoft - You're doing it right!

I'm generally not known for being a big Microsoft fanboy. But I have to say that my recent experinces have left me happy. I've been using the F# CTP since it came out and currently running the Visual Studio 2010 beta. Both are great products but that's not what this post is about.

This post is about how pleased I am with their handling of submitted bugs. The F# team is extremly friendly, quick to respond and equally good at providing updates and responding in a timely manner. Maybe not shocking given that it seems to be a small dedicated team. What mandates this post is that the VS2010 beta team also exhibits theese qualities. Submitting a bug is easy and painfree and they seem to be handled in a very good manner providing timely updates as it flows through the process.

So all thumbs up for the awsome F# and VSEditor teams!
