>I have been struggling with installing the Developer's Edition on my new laptop. Everything goes fine, but when i launch SSMS or VS, the Object Exploror only shows Integration Services, no Databases, Security Objects, etc that I am used to seeing. Anything that I forgot to to during the setup, or do i have to run the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration to make this work?

I've installed SQL Server Express 2008 and I don't see this problem.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
