Nope. Haven't tried it. Haven't looked into it to determine whether
the shipping version will be free. Beta may be the only thing "free"
and that's only if you don't count bug-hunting and the countdown to when
it stops working altogether.

That being said, it gets a favorable review from the good peeps at
WebMonkey.

> Microsoft has unveiled a new all-in-one web development suite called
> WebMatrix.
>
> It�s more than an IDE or a framework, it�s a whole suite � a web
> server, a SQL database, and a database-ready framework, all wrapped
> up into a single development environment that makes it easy to build,
> test and deploy some fairly complex web apps.
>
> WebMatrix is free, and it�s available for Windows users as a beta
> download.
>
> The new suite is especially geared towards developers building web
> apps that require local data storage. It�s pretty flexible, and you
> can also use it to build simple websites, then scale up to something
> mid-weight or incorporate a full-scale app that you could run a
> business on top of.
>
> The WebMatrix suite is made up of three components: the lightweight
> Windows-based web server called IIS Express, SQL Server Compact
> Edition, a simple database server, and Razor, a new templating
> language based on ASP.NET. The beta version you can download today
> actually doesn�t have Razor, but it will be included in a future
> release �later this month,� according to Microsoft.
