Check it out:

http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/express/

These are complete development tools that cover individual areas of the Visual Studio product. You can use them to learn from if you are a student or are new to programming with Visual Studio .NET. I believe the downloads are free. This would be much cheaper than slapping down the cash for the full VS.NET product, then finding out it isn't what you wanted.

VS 2005 Express seems to be really good for personal use. The final version will be cheaper than a full VS pro version.

But I'm more waiting on VS 2005 EA and Team System :)

the VS.NET 2003 IDE is very good, I got the .net2003 pro from my school, great ide/compiler and debugger. Its even better if you can get a cheap copy of the intel compiler :P

At at every Community College and University I know they sell VS.Net Pro 2003 ( blah blah, yadda ) for about $50.

I just picked up Winblows XP for $15. and Office XP for $20.

<RANT>
I hate school bastard teachers make us use .NET and save out project as a VC++ solution file (.sln) so if the TA cant open the ( or doesnt see ) the .sln file you get a 0 for that program.

Man I hate fascist teachers, near the end of the year when you get to "review" your proffesor, I think a kick to the crotch should be a valid revew.

Give me 0 pts for not using retarded object-oriented crap!

ok my rant got way off topic, guess I should get back to work

bewarned these are beta products so do not expect them to work 100%, yes they are free, because they are public beta.
