Migration to Visual Studio 2008 and .NET 3.5

Being a procrastinator, I finally take the dive and migrate to Visual Studio 2008 and .NET 3.5 platform today. By migration, I mean installing Visual Studio 2008 and converting all the VS 2005 projects to VS 2008. And uninstall Visual Studio 2005 completely from my hard drive. Part of the reason for the switch is that I have been learning LINQ for last couple of months on the VS08 installed on my laptop, and I feel comfortable enough now to upgrade my workhorse desktop setup to the VS2008. All things seem go well, the project I have been working on migrated well too. Everything compiles, including the website, WinForm application, DAL, BLL and all the goodies. And after a quick run-through, everything seems to work too. Next step: refactoring some of the code to more functional style and LINQish. Keep tuned.
