Not exactly. While there are "Express" editions of the individual
languages (e.g. Visual C++ Express, Visual C# Express, etc.) there is no
such thing as a "MS Visual Studio 2010 Express edition", unless I'm
grossly mistaken.

While you can download each separately, you can also get them all as one
big ISO image. I would say that counts as an "edition". The fact that you
then launch each application separately is irrelevant; the same applies to
e.g. Adobe's Creative Suite.

No, but I priced it on the US buy.com site and converted the cost. I
didn't look for CS5.

Yep, or use something else. :-)

Are there not some issues with projects that make use of more than one
language?

That would be one of the features you have to pay for.

Apparently not. The UI was designed to make the whole flow from beginning to
end more efficient.

I have owned Photoshop since CS2... The first purchase cost less than my
first serious telephoto zoom lens :) And I'm mostly normal :)

Yeah... I'm expecting an update soon. It appears to hemorrhage memory
like mad. Though it hasn't crashed. I sat down the other morning to a
very angry Windows 7 complaining that Photoshop needed to be closed to
free some memory.
I popped over to process explorer and took a look: Private Bytes: 11
Gig...
so, now I restart it occasionally while working with it. ;)
I will say with regard to hobby that Photoshop and Visual studio are
probably used pretty frequently by serious hobbyists in their respective
fields.
