Correct me if I am wrong, but it would be very difficult to develop a .NET
application using something as simple as notepad.
There are some OK editors out there to do .NET coding in (all the editors for the MONO runtime in Linux, Dreamweaver etc) and you can use the free command line compilers for .NET. If you are a small business willing to comit to developing a .net application, you can sign up to be a Microsoft Empower partner for around $1000 and recieve an MSDN subscripction and copies of Windows Server, SQL Server and VS 2005 to use to make these products.
Some interesting reading. I was thinking about going this way for my own company but I will be sticking with low cost PHP/MySQL for now... for now I tell you!
