"Express 2005" Beta downloads available now
During this Tech-Ed, Microsoft announced the freely-available downloads of the Betas of a new range of Express products.
Just as Outlook Express is a "downgraded" free version of Outlook, there are now free Express Editions of Visual Basic 2005, Visual C# 2005, Visual C++ 2005, Visual J# 2005, Visual Web Dev 2005 (the "sequel" to Web Matrix) and even SQL Server 2005. Each download is less than 100 MB. You can find them on MSDN Express.
