Can someone tell me what is the difference. Just start learning it, most
books are for Pro edition, will I miss something by using Express edition?
Can get VS for about $100, so is not problem to use either one. Thank You

The biggest issue I have with express is no add ins. That means no MZ
Tools which is heart breaking. It is fast and really well tailored to
beginners though and the XNA version is quite cool.

Express is free and I've just confirmed you can open a project created
in Express using full VS, so you could try Express and upgrade if you
feel the need. You can't open XNA game projects though, but that may be
fixable.
