#2Part of me has always been kinda surprised that Microsoft haven't bought ReSharper from JetBrains and integrated it as a special add-in for the Ultimate branch of Visual Studio.
Interesting reading nonetheless, the original post has some good comments: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mikeormond/archive/2010/09/03/msdn-f...

Yeah, I am also astounded that the refactoring tools in VS haven't been massively beefed up.

#4I think that Resharper is too bloated and instable. I use only Metascroll (a continuation of Rockscroll) for a fancy scrollbar and highlighting of intersting stuff in source.

VS2010 is a step in that direction.

There are an awful lot of people who swear by Resharper. If that's all you've replaced it with, it's likely you've not sampled all of the power it gives you.
Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

#7One plugin that would be really useful would be a source verifier that alerts you when your code won't run on, say, a given version of .NET or Mono.

I think its both. I find it hard to work without resharper, yet it is a bloated, buggy pile of crap at times.

I admit I haven't tried it much.

When I used Visual Studio 2003, Resharper was necessary to get anything done. When I used Visual Studio 2005, Resharper added a bunch of nice features that made it more pleasant. Now, when I'm using Visual Studio 2008, I no longer use ReSharper, since most of the functionality is native. There are a few features I miss, but to me they didn't motivate the longer startup times and general sluggishness that Resharper unfortunately adds.
