I keep meaning and forgetting to add a link to an excerpt from the latest edition of the Profession Visual Basic .NET 3.0 book.  The editorial staff chose to excerpt a portion of one of my chapters to let you see some of what is new in the current edition.  We of course are already working on the next edition now that Visual Studio 2008 and .NET 3.5 are in Beta 2, but for the time being this book offers some insight into the new .NET 3.0 technologies.
