IntelliJ IDEA 8 Milestone 1, first impressions

First impression: faster. These days IDEA is a beast of an IDE. I find 7 much better than 6 in terms of features and speed. But 8 is nippier, especially for starting up and compile. Second impression: stable. I've been banging at it for 3 days and it hasn't crashed once. EAP for 7 was flakey at times. I'll probably switch over fully to 8, even with the loss of plugins.  The  UI is slightly cleaner, especially around the tabs area. but nothing radical (which is fine).

At the moment Groovy or Ruby support isn't available, and inbuilt Python and Scala support will arrive. I use Eclipse/PyDEV for Python, but I'll be very interested to see what if anything they do for Scala refactoring, especially given the power of its type system. Apparently Grails and Struts2 will be supported - good. The SQL/MySQL support is very handy.

I haven't had a chance to use the Jersey/JSR-311 support yet, but I'm buzzed about proper support for *something* other than query parameters in Java (JSR-311 is close to going into final call, os it should be safe to integrate the IDE) - Jersey is a tidy piece of code. I hope the major web frameworks will follow up and support it (especially Spring MVC). There's also full blown support for Freemarker and Velocity; it's very nice to see something other than JEE/JSP sanctioned templating.

All in all, it looks very good. You can find out about the EAP here: IntelliJ IDEA 8 Milestone 1

    AFAIK, Spring MVC will continue to support its own, similar but different annotations instead of adopting JSR 311.

    Crimeware is malicious software used to initiate a crime that is typically Internet-based. During the past two years, crimeware attacks have increased at a far greater rate than the normal virus. International gangs of virus writers, hackers and spammers are joining forces to steal information and collect huge profits illegally. A classic example of crimeware is a backdoor keylogger trojan that collects keystroke information and transmits it back to an attacker. For example, a bank login ID and password may be collected and sent back to an attacker. The attacker typically will use this information in order to collect illegal profits., http://www.hotbot.com/?query=antiviru...

    I am looking to find a pair of Xenon bulbs for my friend's 1992 Chevy and was wondering if someone had any guidance?

    I have researched and read on these sites for specifications but any first hand information would be awesome.
