It's never too early, buddy.
You should start looking at these now. Why? Because you are now developing and rewriting database objects for SQL Server 2008 - why use these items when you know that they're on the short list? You can find them by using the following:
SELECT object_name, instance_name, cntr_type
from sys.dm_os_performance_counters
where object_name = 'instancenamehere:Deprecated Features'

I never knew that you could create a temp table with the name of # (it's deprecated LOL). What kind of idiot...?
CREATE TABLE # (CustID int PRIMARY KEY)
