wraith808:
The target audience for their higher end compilers is not the general public, but enterprises. They also come with other things other than just the compiler, so while I don't like it, I understand it. I do agree that Pro should be less, however. Perhaps not sub-$100 (though I wouldn't complain), but $200-$300 would be nice.

You're right. I need to rephrase my opinion then. I think certain features are so essential nowadays that they should be in VS Professional, most importantly Code Coverage.

That I can get on board with. The target for professional should be small VARs- hobbyists are just an added spectrum of support. For these VARs, some of the pseudo-enterprise features are quite important.
