I dunno, I've got a hate-hate relationship going with Visual Studio. I've encountered so many bugs in the system (a particularly good one: UI designer executing code which made the window I was building work, calling the DB, autocompleting its own variable name with the results, filling drop-downs and everything) and so many basic functions are a PITA or non-existent that I routinely find myself wishing they'd just give me a gdb terminal.

Personal main peeve: the debugger is far from intuitive, frequently chops off strings in the inspector w/o giving any way to read the rest of them (no magnifying glass), and offers no way to test anything which cannot be done in a single line of code - ie, anything to do with enumerators, and nearly 1/2 the .NET framework I've encountered.
