Funny you should ask. I installed Visual Studio 2005 Professional
Edition on the Windows buildslave a couple of days ago, so switching
shouldn't be a problem. (I don't think Express Edition isn't adequate in
this case because it makes it difficult to create PortableApps and U3
packages.)

However, Visual Studio 2008 is out. Should we focus on making _that_ our
recommended Windows compiler instead?
