  I'm using VSTS July 2005 CTP.  I've found that on idle VSTS kicks in Intellisense processing, which often ends up hanging the IDE.  I've looked through all options and can't find a place to turn that processing off.

  Hey all, I have a nice gui visual studio app, and I've been using console::writeline to view output throughout my program. To be able to view this output, I open a DOS window and pipe my executable file to 'MORE'.
