.NET 3.5

Is it simple to download the 3.5 SDK to install on my VS2005 box so that I
can program .NET 3.5 Framework using VS 2005?

No, you can't use .NET 3.5 with VS2005. However, it won't be long until
VS2008 comes out anyway (and .NET 3.5 will be released at the same
time).

How about .NET 3.0? Does VS 2005 support it?

Ish. There are various extensions to help with it, but they're not as
good as their VS2008 counterparts, from what I've seen.

I've been working a lot with VS2005 and the "extensions".... While,
they mostly work - they AREN'T as good as the 2008 versions -
especially the WPF forms designer (I pretty much end up writing all
the xaml by hand).
