MonoDevelop or Visual Studio?

Do you guys like MonoDevelop or Visual Studio better? I'd like my MonoGame tutorials to eventually cover both, but if you have any feedback on what you like best, it would help me prioritize what I'm doing here.

MonoGame already works in VS2012 from what i read at their site.
I like VS2012 Express because is what i already have and maybe is better to work in just one App than two.
I think than maybe more people work in VS as well so can be easier to help each other or get some other things to work.

Anyway im just in the c# crash course so i have some time until MonoGame tutorials lol

Thanks for the reply. I agree switching between two IDEs is kind of tough…

Is the C# Crash Course treating you well enough?

I had been using a lot of editors for web over the years and was overwhelming.. so i quit and now i have a happy life with notepad++

I feel the tutorials challenge my mind and open it to new points of view. I try to make every example and some are like "oh i cant, lets check the code" and then "oh i hadnt tought in that!" So obvious and complex at the same time, like magic.
