Difference between VS 2005 and VS 2005 Express

What's the difference between Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio
2005 Express?

I want to start a project on multi-threading in .NET. Will using
Visual Studio 2005 Express be sufficient?

Which Express Edition? VB, VC, VC#, Web?
As the express editions use the full .NET Framework class hierarchy, you
should not encounter problems using the classes that support multithreading.

It's C#.NET. I want to do a lot of multi-threading.

No difference, with respect to the .NET framework, for threading.

Express does not support (for example) creating projects for Compact
Framework devices, which requires Standard Edition or higher -- just as one
limitaton.
