need advice about visual basic 2005 express

Hello. I have always wanted to learn how to write programs as a hobby
and Visual Basic 2005 Express seems like the perfect platform. Can
someone who is more experience let me know if this is a good language
to learn with and also let me know if this product will be cost
prohibitive once it is out of beta.

Thanks, Alex

At least, that was like that in VB.NET 2005 express. But in Visual C# .NET 2005 you won't be able to aware of coding...
