TFS is a below average source control system in an age when there are many better choices. VSS, on the other hand, is an active threat to all of your code.
At a previous employer, I was delighted by the switch to TFS, because it meant we no longer had to worry about the VSS file store getting corrupted and losing data. Now I'm on contract with another employer still using VSS, and we should be cutting over to TFS soon. Once again, I will be delighted. Because the below average is a welcome change from the flatly unacceptable.
