Using WPF without XAML, the WinFX SDK or VS Extensions

Any hints or links to guides on coding a WPF application using only the
WinFX Components from the December CTP of Vista and Visual C# Express?

being condemned to enjoy 56k dial-up I cannot afford to download the 1 GB
WinFX SDK

I've just started on referencing the WinFX components in a basic project
that so far goes like this:


using System;
using System.Windows;
// No references to System.Windows.Forms at all

Main()
{
Window w;
w = new Window();
w.Show();
}


Now how to "lock" our process to that window (so that it doesn't terminate
immediately afterwards) and process events etc.?

Nevermind, got it
