How to set up decent local development environment for ASP.NET and C#

I am experienced php developer and I have everything setup for design/development/testing etc and I can develop locally on my machine using WAMP. My question is, what should I be looking into for setting up a professional local development environment for developing web applications?

I have Windows 7.

To follow up the answer from Mahesh, you can get the Microsoft products for free:

There is also a web platform installer that is especially designed to make it easy to download and install the components you select all from the same spot.

My choices:

  • Some editor (Visual Studio 2010, express edition is free)
  • Datastore (Micosoft SQL Server or Compact Edition)
  • IIS
  • Some Version Control system (SVN, Mercurial, Git etc)

The above mentioned are fairly easy to setup and you should be ready to go.
