One thing you can always do is use UltraEdit/Textpad and the command line compiler to create your code files and only use Studio for debugging... I'm going to write an article on Web Services with Notepad that details the minimum necessary to write a web service from scratch using tools provided by the framework itself without requiring VS. Pretty much any project can be written without relying on Studio (it's just quicker/easier once you figure out the cruft from the meat).
