Right now I'm trying to get a little deeper into C# and I'm exploring MSIL.

I previously installed VS 2002. Later I uninstalled and upgraded to VS 2003.
Now, in exploring my \Windows\assembly directory I notice that I have
several assembly references that are identical. Same Version, same public
key.

My question is how do these references impact system resources and is it
safe to delete duplicates?
 
Hi Chuck,
You know that the assemly name has four parts: name, version, culture and
public key are you sure they are completely the same?
