I must be missing something.. (I’m used to using eclipse)
Visual Studio 2008 appears to suspend all threads when I hit a breakpoint – is this normal? If so, is there an option that will only suspend the thread on which the breakpoint has hit?

Yes this is completely normal for a debugger to do. Consider what would happen if it did not. Any value the debugger displayed would have to be considered out of date the moment it was displayed because any of the other running threads could be changing the value out from under it.
I don’t believe there is a way to break in Visual Studio without pausing all threads.
