Confused. o_0

People keep on about the Platform SDK, and I cant find a dickie bird of it mentioned on the Express website, seen stuff about the web development sdk, but im dont think thats it, and im not into making a website. What exactly is the Platform SDK, I would instantly think platform meaning Windows Vista 32, as thats what I have.

I've got the 2008 express edition: please could you post the correct download link for me please?

Thanks if you can,
Clyde.

I was under the impression that VS2008 Express came with the Platform SDK built in <edit>checked, it does<edit>.  It was separate in 2005.  You're right in that the Plaform SDK is what you need to start writing Windows programs, everything except device drivers.
