An updated version of Expression 3 has been released by Microsoft. The free download is the fully functional version. That's what it says on the site and in the forums (I'll double-check tomorrow morning). Tried downloading just now to test, maybe the server's overloaded. Apparently, its longtime users, mostly professional artists, are quite passionate about their tool. I saw an artist do stuff in Expression that I didn't know was possible with software, it was one of those stunning moments that stick in your head.
p.s. Reading back on these blog posts, I guess it can seem like I've dived into the kool-aid, but I haven't had a dull moment since November :-P
UPDATE: It's a free download, but only intended as a service for previous users of Expression.
