Part 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...

VS2010 is a step in that direction.

Yeah, as that makes clear, Resharper is still staggeringly better.
