Programming Languages in Visual Studio 2012 Installer

I've read in the Visual Studio blog that at least, in the setup for VS 2012 RC there was no way to select which programming languages to install.

My question is: Does the final version of VS 2012 Setup let me choose what languages to install?

I mean, if I don't want to install C++ or VB.Net, can I do that as I always did in previous versions?

I just don't want to waste space in my SSD (just 128 gb) with things that I don't use.

Thanks in advance!

No, there are only options to select some other features (Blend, LightSwitch, Silverlight etc) and VS interface languages.

Microsoft explains why here http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2012/06/04/setup-improvements-for-visual-studio.aspx?PageIndex=5#comments

You can vote for this feature to be added to a future release here http://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio/suggestions/2930718-provide-installation-customization-options-to-excl
