Upgrade from VSS to TFS

It gets so annoying when someone checks in code into the source control that doesn't compile, don't you agree?

Unfortunately VSS doesn't have support processing of rules on check-in and doesn't force users to add a change log entry either. What? No email notification either? This sucks.

That's where TFS comes in... it has a bunch of additional features and is Microsoft's answer to open-source solutions such as CVS and SVN. For more on TFS, there's a page on MSDN comparing the features of TFS and VSS here:
