Visual Web Developer does not support creating Web sites on a SharePoint Web server

It was suggested that I post this query here rather than in the
Microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb group.

I just received my Visual Studio upgrade to 2005 Pro and tried to create a
new web site via File | New Web Site with location http. Unfortunately I
received the following error:

"Visual Web Developer does not support creating Web sites on a SharePoint
Web server"

Apparently SharePoint is causing the problem, which, I think, was installed
as part of FrontPage 2002 before I installed VS 2005.

Is there some change that can be made so that I do not need the following
workaround I figured out?

Workaround:

First, using Windows Explorer you create a new folder in C:\Inetpub\wwwr oot,
say, TestSite. Then you open up IIS and create a virtual directory with
alias TestSite, and point it to the folder you created named TestSite.

Now in Visual Studio you can create your new website using the above created
folder, TestSite.

I'd like to purchase Visual C# .Net for learning purposes only since it's a lot cheaper than Visual Studio (note that I'm a very experienced C++ developer). Can someone simply clarify the basic differences. Ok, Visual Studio has C++, VB and J++ thrown in plus some extra bells and whistles (I already have some minimal experience) but are both IDE's essentially the same (including the same IDE support for creating forms, ADO.NET DataSets,...

I'm currently experiencing a strange phenomenon: At my Office, Visual Studio takes a very long time to compile our solution (more than 1 minute for the first project). At home, Visual Studio compiles the same solution much faster (about 10 seconds for the first project). My home computer is only marginally faster than the one I have at the office (P4 2.53 vs. P4 2.4, same amount of RAM). On the slow machine, the CPU usage is very low,...

I came across a rather interesting article this morning and thought I'd share. We all know that Visual Studio is a great IDE, but I think we can all agree that it is adds a dramatic change to how we write code. I'm not posting to talk trash or start a flamewar, just wanting feedback in regards to the following article. I happen to use Visual Studio on a daily basis and am not a John Rivers alter-ego. ...
