Xen meets its Omega

I got a surprise in my inbox this morning.   An email from Erik Meijer read:

The impossible has happened: X# became Xen, Xen became Comega, and Comega has shipped.

  What's really impossible is to install it without having Visual Studio.net 2003 on your machine.

  Thanks Matt. I'll slightly reformat the question. Can you tell me how can I have a non-default constructor that initializes x in the following class A
  
  public class A
  {
  struct
  {
  int x;
  }
  }
  
  (Basically I want to initialize all the fields inside the constructor)
  
  Outside the constructor I can access x as
  A a = new A();
  a.x = 5;
  
  But inside the constructor, I coudn't do
  this.x
  because of the anonymoust struct
  
  Is it by design that all content classes has to be initialized from outside of constructors?

  That's probably a bug.
