Can Visual Studio.Net 2005 professional edition be installed on a Vista Home
computer operating system? If so, is there anything I should be aware of?
If not, can you tell me why Visual Studio.net 2005 professional edition
does not run on a Vista Homer computer operating System?

Yes, it can. However, note that VS 2005 preceded Vista and is not designed for the Vista security model.

You need to (after installing VS 2005) install VS 2005 SP1 *and* the Vista patch for VS 2005. For some project types and functionality to work correctly, you will need to launch VS 2005 using "run as administrator".
