One of the common questions that everyone ask is when should I write stored procedure using .NET instead of TSQL.  Well the integration of CLR into SQL Server is very much loved but it should not be used  in all scenarios. Remember its not designed to replace TSQL. So I would say use T-SQL for data intensive operations and to use .NET for computation intensive operations.

Any more suggestions?

I have some questions for my readers ?

1. Built-in firewall :  Does this mean that I no longer need to use Antivirus Softwares? 
2. Parental control features, Good or Bad
3. In my view instead of different versions, I would be more happy with single version but allows me to choose features I want during installation. 
   (I understand different versions will be good for pocket.... but what suppose if I want to upgrade from Basic to Business? Any one knows about upgrade program?)
