It is and the new Visual Studio is reasonably priced...for the time
being. I think M$ wants to try and recapture the people they lost
with VS2003.

Unfortunately it will need .NET2 to work, so unless it is already installed
and it will be more and more by default, it will need to be downloaded and
installed. The set up launcher will do this automatically if the computer is
on the net but it is about 20Mb.

Delphi is another excellent choice but too expensive for my taste, it may
get cheaper once Borland gets out of the way, I haven't kept up with the
latest.
