No, you must pay for Visual Studio and "activate" it.  However, I have
been developing my application for some time now with SharpDevelop
(http://www.icsharpcode.net <http://www.icsharpcode.net/> ) and for the
most part it is pretty stable apart from a few minor quirks.
 
My local Barnes & Noble bookstore had some of the Microsoft Press .NET
books on sale at 40% off late last year and I picked up a few, each came
with a 60 day trial version of Visual Studio.NET Professional Edition.
My first trial edition expired.  Haven't bothered trying to install one
from another book yet.  It might not let you.

Folks, some newbie questions below, pardon my english...
 
1) If i develop a simple web app with visual studio (w/ db access) can I
run it fine on a mono box? (I think yes since ASP.NET and ADO.NET were
implemented)...
 
2) (somewhat off topic) Does Visual Studio has some sort of "free for
non-commercial use" statement?
 
Thanks for your attention,
 
Henrique
