Thank you for a good laugh! BTW, papyrus and my trusty abacus still work just fine. I mock your fancy magic powered 'corn-puters'!

Yes, you COULD compile with 2.0 against the 3.5 libraries. But, there are some pretty significant language changes in both VB and C# as well as some pretty nice IDE changes, that you just won't be able to use until or unless you move to 2008.

I'm working on an ASP.NET 3.5 web site using Visual Studio 2005 until I get Visual Studio 2008. It does not cause any problems because I'm not using anything that isn't in ASP.NET 2.0, even though my web.config file is for ASP.NET 3.5.
