Its actual code editing is shit. Debugging, project management, designing etc is all fine, but writing code is a pain compared to Eclipse.
It doesn't do any background compilation to check for errors like Eclipse and Netbeans (and I thought any self-respecting IDE) do. VS doesn't say anything about assigning a string to an int, or using too few arguments in a method, until compile time. This is annoying when you're used to it, but gets really annoying when you're building some huge project only to discover after a 10 second compilation that little syntax errors crept in. Tell me about syntax errors when I make them!
Honestly, I hate this feature in eclipse, and it is why I use JCreator.
