Migrating to Linq to SQL in Thebeerhouse and ASP.Net 2.0 Website Programming Problem Design Solution (Hardcover)

LINQ to SQL has quickly become a hot topic with the release of ASP.NET 3.5, so it makes sense that the TheBeerHouse application gets an upgraded Data Access Layer leveraging this new technology!

While TheBeerHouse has been ported to Visual Basic .NET, the author uses C# throughout this Wrox Blox, so readers should have at least an intermediate level of understanding with C#.
