My Reading List
The long-awaited Service Pack 1 for Visual Studio.NET 2003 was released earlier this week. SP1 fixes over 400 VS.NET 2003 bugs , including the top 50% of VS.NET crashes reported using through the Windows Error Reporting Service (via Soma). Now we know where that information went, and that it was put to good use! Most notable from the fix list are several IntelliSense fixes, plus resolutions to assorted IDE crashes. Hopefully a service pack for Visual Studio 2005 will be delivered before 2008.
Note: at a hefty 156.3 MB for SP1, some users are reporting long download and install times.

It would be nice if we didn't need both VS 2003 and VS 2005. Microsoft doesn't get that people could (shock! horror!) have both 1.1 and 2.0 projects, or (shock! horror!) the same project deploying to both.
With Eclipse or IDEA, I can specify a JDK per project, etc., and neither of those is the "owner" or "author" of Java. If they can do it, why can't Microsoft, which owns the standard and the API and the implementation and the tools?
Peace.

In fact with SharpDevelop you can choose the release of .NET framework at project level:

Actually Cameron, if you are interested in that you should look at MSBee. It allows you to develop .NET 1.1 applications inside of VS2005 thus allowing you to walk away from VS 2003. And going forward I think you will see more of that as they have pushed the generation of the actual MSIL outside of VS thus allowing VS to be somewhat independent of versions of .NET. The release of .NET 3 sometime next year will be the true test if they have figured it all out or not, but for now do a search for MSBee that should get you want you want.
Hope that helps
