Visual Studio 2003

I bought a new PC and need VS 2003.

VS 2005 is not an option because the cross-compilers I use are not supported by 2005.

How do I buy this online

I cannot wait for a CD to be mailed.

Thanks

    I am not sure if they are offering a trial version of 2003 .NET version. At the bottom of every microsoft.com page there is a contact us link. You can use that possibility to ask if the 2003 .NET version is still available as download.

    I googled, and the VS2003 trial pages are gone, which leads to the obvious conclusion that as MS is selling 2005, and has been for a while, they are not offering a VS2003 trial anymore.

    I spent hours going around in circles on the Microsoft web site trying to look for a link where I can download and install the 90 trial version of 2003. It keeps bringing me back to the download for 2005. Does anyone know where I can download the 90 trial version of VS 2003 That way I can install now and worry about paying for a legit license later.

    If you can't buy it locally, the only option I am aware of is to buy an MSDN subscription, which is quite expensive, but would allow you to download it.
