Visual Studio 2008 Express Editions: 15 things you'll love
Gill Cleeren     .net 3.0 | .net 3.5 | Visual Studio.net     November 20, 2007    

Dan Fernandez posted an overview of 15 great features you'll love with the new Visual Studio 2008 Express Editions.
His list encompasses integration of LINQ, free ebooks, WPF designer support... and of course, the fact that the Express editions are completely free.
Did you know there's even an ISO you can download with all express editions included? It's a 900MB download that, when installed, gives you the complete express suite. All for free!

Dan's list can be found here.

And here's a list of direct links to download the express editions.

  • Visual Basic Express 2008
  • Visual C# Express 2008
  • Visual C++ Express 2008
  • Visual Web Developer Express 2008
  • All Visual Studio Express Products DVD Image

    • Also, you can download the XNA game studio 2.0 (beta), which installs as an add-on for Visual Studio. Yes, again, all for free... More information here.

    Start downloading, I'd say!

    So can you install multiple express versions on the same machine and have the co-exist?
