Microsoft Expression Design, A professional illustration and graphic design tool that lets you build compelling assets for both Web and desktop application user interfaces. Currently Microsoft’s Expression Design has reached the mark of Beta 2 stage. There is no much changes has been made since beta 1 Expression design.

The idea of Expression still keep simple , streamlined design that’s been part of the product since its first versions. Only changes on Expression Design Beta 2 is support for the Release Candidate version of Expression Blend and enhanced XAML export capabilities to support .NET Framework 3.0.

But i still believe Microsoft Expression Design still have a long way to develop if they want to compete with recongnized graphic design product such Adobe Photoshop or Marcomedia Fireworks. Only benefit i can see of using Expression Design perhaps is XAML integration and Vista compatible.
