Microsoft no longer offers VS2010 Express, but I took a chance on downloading it from a third party "GetIntoPC" <http://getintopc.com/softwares/development/download-visual-studio-2010-professional-free-version/> and it seems OK. It's the Express version, not Professional as advertised. It can't compile 64-bit, and even sample plugin Win32 build attempts are fraught with errors. It looks like Windows will have to wait...
