Direct downloads for Visual Studio 2005 Express BETA products now available

Many folks have been having problems downloading the Visual Studio 2005 Express Beta 1 bits due to the nature of their download process (download the installer and have the installer download the software - probably in an effort to reduce the actual download size to what the machine in question actually needs, but scary and malfunctioning stuff in most cases not only for Microsoft software).

Fortunately, you can now download the Visual Studio 2005 Express Beta bits directly from the following download pages:
