yea, that's one downfall in .NET 2005 is, its a major resource hog and you will notice it lol, i punch my desk 50 times a day when it hangs or crashes lol.
As for the question, one option is to set it up on your best machine and do a remote desktop connection into it and work from your laptop that way, that's what i do when i work late. I remote in to my work machine and work from my laptop. I don't even have studio installed on my laptop.
another option:
i just googled and found this
http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/
it may suit your needs.
it looks pretty cool, and the setup file is 8MB. It claims it can run off the .NET framework, may be worth looking into. I am checking it out now and in my opinion its a pretty neat little IDE. also does C#.
Edit: very cool, it has the framework built into the intellisense as well, design mode and code view, i think i may have to switch my IDE!! lol
only downfall i see so far vs. Visual Studio is lack of team foundation server(source control) but you could always use an external one if you needed source control, like tortoise, which is also free btw.
as for the 2003 vs. 2005, its not an enormous difference, a lot of the code can usually be converted over successfully from 2003 to 2005. the differences are Visual Studio .Net 2003 uses version 1.1 of the framework, whereas 2005 uses version 2.0 of the framework. the IDE i put the URL for can do both frameworks
