So continuing on from part 1

My machine (Windows 2008 Server) already has Visual Studio 2008 installed so this may be different for those who do not already have it. This will be a lot of pictures showing step-by-step the install and comments on that.

The standard splash screen for any application.

First window of the wizard installer. Interesting is the version number there, I wonder if Onyx is the codename for this product?

Same as what is in license_??.rtf in the root of the disk.

Enter key, what key? Damn need to find the mail the sent me… gmail here I come. Damn no key in the mails they sent me, ok back to the Embarcadero site. Oh, look I had to do that manually. WTF why don’t you send it to me when I click download? Oh well, guess I can’t get everything.

This is interesting, as I have VS 2005 installed as well it seems to install to that too (cool). I make this assumption because the shell on the disk is only 2008. Silverlight support is also interesting.

Mono license

Hey, thanks for giving me an option to change my visual studio start page to Delphi Prism. The SQL guys could learn a lot from you (they just set it to Microsoft.com/sql regardless if you want that or not).

Mono install first, then

Prism actually installing.

And DONE! from start to finish under 10min!
