It's a GUI beginners usually fire in their feet with - because I saw many
who don't understand the difference between the file system and the
repository, and think that copying or deleting a file should be mirrored in
the repository too. I prefer to make them work in a separate environement so
they know it's now a Windows folder.

bought it already.

Bug tracking could be setup easily by any experienced CVS user. We did. We
don't use VS, thereby visual studio integration is useless for us - just
paying for something we don't use.
