Not that it really matters especially if someone likes this product, but you can purchase a full version of SQL Server Develoepr Edition which includes EM and can be used to connect to any version of SQL Server if that is what you are afters (including msde) for $49.95 here http://www.microsoft.com/PRODUCTS/info/product.aspx?view=22&pcid=9f57fd61-e1cb-46eb-881c-5289ffcc1456&type=ovr . When you weigh the price of this product you might want to keep that in mind espeically if you prefer the EM interface.
