Nope.
I downloaded 2017, and some earlier ones. As it turns out, however, I've not much use for them.
Since I'll not go beyond Win7, anyway, before going full Linux, I'd more likely be exploring possibilities in that world.
As for my paycheck? They hired me for C++ but it's moved to full web apps. With the exception of a recent exception (site access secured by a local .exe and machine registration), I've hardly done anything with a real language for quite a while.

One of my coworkers said he'd volunteer as a test dummy. If he has anything interesting to say in the next day or so I'll relay it.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Nope, just getting cozy with VS2017

Yes. Downloaded and installed last night, and used it all day today.
The new "start window" thing's a tad annoying, but I didn't spend a huge amount of time looking at the old "start page" anyway.
Top-level extension menus (eg: ReSharper) have been moved under a single "Extensions" item, which was a bit jarring at first. But that's probably a good excuse to learn more of the keyboard shortcuts. 
ReSharper 2019 is still in "EAP", so it occasionally pops up it's "unhandled exception" notification. But that happens with every EAP version.
GhostDoc 2019 is still in beta, and doesn't provide a beta for the community edition, so that's not installed yet.
Otherwise, no complaints. Feels like a slightly more polished turd version of VS2017.

Pfff... this question is like so 3 weeks ago....

So where is the actual download for it? Or am I stuck with the stupid installer that goes out and gets bits and pieces?

Nope. I basically only use Rider these days, and I haven't looked back.

When I first joined Code Project I loved getting the newsletter with the witty comments under the headings.
I still enjoy these.
Over all these years my favourite place on CP is the lounge.
It is such a great place to visit and be in.
I rarely go anywhere else here, except to download some code or example.
I don't respond very often, but I do enjoy and love it here in the lounge.
I often wonder what the people look like in real life.
Some offer this but most don't.
I can understand why.
But one of the best things about CP is that I will enjoy and be entertained by people that I wouldn't like in real life.
OK that is a bit of an assumption. Maybe true or not, but that is what I feel sometimes.
E.G.
I miss Dalek Dave. I always loved his posts.
But i doubt that I would have liked him in real life.
This is what makes the lounge a special place.
Anyone else feel the same?

Most of us look like Bob.
Except me - I look just like my avatar.

Haha
No one looks like Bob.
However for some reason i have always accepted your avatar as how you look.
So you are an exception.

Lounge? Have you ever been to the QA?

QA doesn't present the same interesting dilemma.
In QA it's 100% elephanting certain that you wouldn't like the person IRL! 
Anything that is unrelated to elephants is irrelephant

I don't like some of them in the virtual world either, so at least they are consistent.

Not necessarily; they could be clueless programmers, but decent people.

perhaps you could ask for code / examples right here in the lounge, then really not need to go anywhere else?

Gods know! I blocked him even before the referendum as I was sick of the lies he was regurgitating. Haven't heard anything for 3 years now.
