It can also accelerate business acceptance of the new system and short-cut analysis errors as they get to see a working system that provides real functionality that much sooner.

This also gets people's creative juices flowing as they start to see "well if the system can do this, then doing ... would be really useful"

Point 3 is in my opinion the more important one :). I'm convinced that a software should be put in production as soon as possible, and thanks to Continuous Integration procedure should be "always deployable".

My favorite is #3. I wish more people practiced it. So many times we get tripped up on release week by permissions, firewalls, loadbalancers, etc. If new projects were incrementally deployed, some of these things could be figured out beforehand.

RE: What is the difference in <%: variable%> and <%= variable%> in ASP.NET MVC?

@Damien,

Thanks for the elaboration. I'll have to investigate that more.

I believe <: actually maps to Html.AttributeEncode rather than Html.Encode as it encodes double quotes too so you can use it in an attribute as well, e.g. <img src=".." alt="<%: Model.ImageAlt %>" />

thanks, I'd been wondering about this! I just figured it was a way to distinguish between webforms and mvc...

by the way does this work in webforms on 4.0 as well?

@Erik,

That's correct. It is a 2nd edition, not a sequel.

Is it correct to say that it's not necessary to have read the first edition to read the second edition?

Many thanks! Your post seems to have done the trick!

Thank you! I stumbled across this when I was looking for solutions for my "plugged in, not charging" and this was the only one that worked. I tried uninstalling the ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery but never in that order.

I just got windows 7 on my originally vista computer and I think this problem was a side-effect.

Thanks so much!
