    .NET 2005 Express Limitations

    I'm using VB.net 2003 at the moment but I really want the new 2005 pro edition, but I can't afford £600 so right now i'm downloading the express 2005 edition, and I cant seem to find a list of limitations compared to the full version, so I was hoping someone could help. Also are the other (express) .Net languages c#/c++ similar limitations to the VB?

    one more thing, anyone know where I can get VS2005 (genuine) at a good price, i.e I don't have to sell a lung to afford it

    The chances of your getting a legitimate copy of VS 2005 Pro this soon in its life at a reduced price is next to nothing.

    You can keep an eye out there, that's where I bought mine (I got it for just under 500). Make sure you pick a reputable seller though..

    Hmmm... where do these things come from? I guess they could be freebies that the recipient didn't want.

    It says factory sealed but the image doesnt look like it has the celophane wrapper? I dont see how the price could be so low even if it was completely new. Its about the same price as the upgrade version though. Hmm...
