I only have 512MB RAM and found out that MSVC++ 2010 Express ran hellishly slow, so I uninstalled it. Assuming same for MSVC#.
I’m planning to learn C# over the summer with the book “Pro C# and the .NET 4 platform”. So I’m wondering if I can use the 2008 version?

You don’t need Visual Studio. All you need is the framework (apparently they no longer call it the SDK). However, Visual Studio provides a number of nice features, but strictly speaking it isn’t mandatory.
For an alternative IDE check SharpDevelop. I have very limited experience with it myself, so I can’t really give you any useful pointers.
