Help me choose the edition of VS.NET

[VBOfficer]

Hi,
I just don't know use which edition of Visual Studio .NET 2008?
Express, Standard or Professional ?!
I have express and it's OK just it won't allow me to select target .net framework when I want to create a new project.
The professional version allows you to select your new project is for .net framework 2.0, 3.0 or 3.5 ?!
I don't think I use professional version features, although I don't know what they are?
But I need this ability to select the .net framework.
Anyone knows a table that compares express, standard and professional edition? Or have any information on this?

Also, if I compile my project using EXPRESS or TEAM SYSTEM edition, is there a difference in the quality of output assembly?
For example, the output assembly will have more performance or something?

Thanks all

http://www.microsoft.com/express/support/faq/ point 14 covers the framework version.

As far as I am aware all the varsions of visual studio use the same compiler and as such would produce the same code without any differences in performance etc.
