I'm working on getting the full license for VS 2008 (or my boss is) but my trial has expired, and I need to do some work.

How can I re-install?

Or, if I install on a different machine (or virtual machine) - how can I get another key without going through the whole download process from MS again?

I'd think you could probably do most of the same work in the free Express Edition, until you get the full license.

I agree - I do all of my side work in the free express editions at home, and haven't seen the drawbacks. I just notice a ton of missing templates. Everything I wrote for AnAppADay.com was with the free edition too.

Agreed - if it was something that the Express Edition couldn't handle, I imagine Nick would be in an environment where the MSDN sub could be netted real quick ;)
