What's the difference between "Stop Debugging" and "Terminate All" in Visual Studio?

As the title asks, what's the difference between "Stop Debugging" and "Terminate All" in Visual Studio (I know those options are available in 2008, but not sure if it's called the same or something different in 2005 or 2010) ?

I think Terminate All will kill all attached processes in Visual Studio while the former just stops debugging but leaves the processes running.

Update: A better answer from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/406kfbs1.aspx

Stop Debugging terminates the process you are debugging if the program was launched from Visual Studio. If you attached to the process, instead of launching it from Visual Studio, the process continues running. If you want to terminate attached processes, you can terminate a single process from the Processes window or terminate all attached process with the Terminate All command.
