Going from Visual Studio 2008 to Visual Studio 2010 Express Editions

I use C# and asp.net in visual studio 2008 standard. I just found out that there is no Visual studio 2010 standard.

I can't really afford Visual studio 2010 Pro.

So what am I going to lose when (if) I start using C# 2010 express web dev 2010 express

I'm using the express editions of VS 2010 and here's what I've found to be missing compared to VS 2008 Pro:

  • No support for plugins at all (e.g. no Resharper or what not)

  • No windows Service template (this is really odd as this exists in VS 2008 C# express edition, so it must've been removed from 2008 express to 2010 express)

And that's pretty much it, there are probably other things missing too, however I haven't come across anything else.

I've used VS 2008 express editions at home for a long time (and now 2010 express), but run VS 2008 Pro at work.
