Does VS2010 does not install SQL Server during installation

Just confirming -does VS2010 does not install SQL Server during installation? I'm assuming no.

This being the case I therefore need to download a copy of SQL Expr开发者_开发百科ess 2005 or something to develop against on my windows XP home PC? Is this correct? Or would the Dev edition of SQL Server 2005 run/install on Windows XP Home?

thanks

I installed VS2010 Professional and it installed a 32 bit SQL Express 2008 instance as part of the install.
