Unlike VS2008Express, VS2010Express now wants a registration key. Not only that, you need to create a live id too. Problem arises when you are using it on a machine that is not connected to the Internet - there is no alternative telephone number that you can ring.

The only solution I've found so far is to type in the address line specified by the 2010 Express machine on another machine connected to the Internet. Then type the registration key on the 2010Express machine. Highly error prone but it sort of works. Does anyone know of a better way of doing this?
