Knew about SQL Express, wasn't aware that they were releasing the rest as an Express Version. Going to download the Web Developer Beta As soon as I figure out if .NET 2.0 framework is going screw anything else up.

It screwed up my PC, had to format and start again. It completely stopped IIS from working (made the IISAdmin service hang) and because IIS wasn't working it wouldn't uninstall. -- But thats my pc, its not the most reliable

If you install the .net 2.0 beta 2 make sure that you use commandline flags to install it so it does not take over the preference of your .net. 2.0 is fully backwards compatible but until the full version is out you may want to install it not as the default .net onto your system. check msdn for details.
