Finally, SharePoint 2010 running on my Windows 7 Laptop... :-)

Finally, I got Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 running on my Window 7 laptop, was suffered a lot with incomplete and inclear steps suggested by Microsoft Guide "Setting Up the Development Environment for SharePoint Server".

I'll suggest to go through comments on the page first, also http://www.mcpblog.net/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?List=8f2497f6-e77b-4e70-8400-e020b292165c&ID=61 helps to pass through step 8 on configuration wizard.

Update (2010/03/07): download http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?DownloadID=23806

Best of Luck.
