I think all you'll need to do is install Visual Studio 2005 Pro. It'll
install .net and some MSDN stuff for help files. That's all I did
anyway. I don't have a clue about .net 3.0 or 3.5.

Hello

I'd like to try writing desktop, ie. winforms, apps in VB.Net, and
need to check what to do:
1. Install .Net framework 2.0 (or can I use 3.5?)
2. Install SDK
3. Install VisualStudio 2005 Pro

I think that .NET 3.0/3.5 add new technologies like LINQ, WPF, WCF, etc.

I think they are cool (at least, LINQ and WPF).

However, at this moment, it's not very clear to me if for desktop apps WPF
is OK, or if WinForm is for desktop apps, and WPF is for web...

You may also want to download the VS2008 Express Editions, to have a preview
of .NET 3.0/3.5.

Moreover, I think that you may find very interesting visiting Soma's blog:
