      Visual Studio 2008 Team Foundation Server Install is killing me WindowClipping

      This is my 5th attempt at reinstall.  Different errors every time.  This error is the most ridiculous.  Of course I have a compatible version of SQL server installed.  And yes, I followed every single step of the TF Installation Guide.

      I don't understand why this install has to be so painful?  Why can't you just log in with an administrative password, shove in the disk, and say go?

      Stupid Masterpages in VS2008 and Expression Web

      Oi.  Talk about frustrating.  I'm playing with a template right now and converting it from a dwt to a masterpage.  No big deal right?  There should be two content sections on the page.  A left column and a right column.  Everything else on the page is static.  During the design phase I'm using it for my own web site.   In Visual Studio and Expression Web I get the following error when I look at the design view:

      Here's the HTML: (Simple Right?)

         1:  <!-- Begin Left Column -->
         2:  <div id="column_l">
         3:          <!-- #BeginEditable "content" -->
         4:                  <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="cphLeft" runat="server" />
         5:          <!-- #EndEditable -->
         6:  </div>
         7:  <!-- End Left Column -->
         8:   
         9:  <!-- Begin Right Column -->
        10:  <div id="column_r">
        11:          <!-- #BeginEditable "sidebar" -->
        12:                  <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="cphRight" runat="server" />
        13:          <!-- #EndEditable -->
        14:  </div>
        15:  <!-- End Right Column -->

      Huh? They don't have the same IDs. What can this error mean?  When I delete one of the content place holders it shows everything perfectly.  But here's the kicker.  When I view the site in a browser with both content place holders it works fine.  This is totally annoying.
