OK, I've been authorized to say a little more: Yes, it's Visual Studio and it'll have all the features you'll expect: Project Management, Syntax Highlighting, Debugging Support, Refactoring... But it's the "special features" that make the product and I can't talk about them at this time. Sorry.

That relaxes me a little... I mean, that it's Visual Studio and not Eclipse :-P

Interesting that someone feels D has sufficient potential to write a commercial plugin for it...

What kind of price tag $0, $10, $50, $100, $200, ??? I'm just looking for a ball park number not a price quote.

For the record, if company X is listening, I'd buy a copy provided its priced reasonably.  For me that means somewhere < $400.

The Visual Studio debugger is really quite nice.  My only complaint is that VS 2003 and beyond are resource hogs, so I only run them when I want to actually debug an application.
