Today I was playing around with Windows Server 2003 for the first time, and I really like it compared to XP. Its default configurations are not nearly as irritating as the ones in XP, and it's got most if not all of the XP benefits.

Expensive, though...


I was considering running this on my laptop recently since I have access to a legal copy. One big problem though. It identifies as a server product, so common antivirus or defrag solutions will want a server version to be installed. Another one was that System Restore is missing, but that can be added back in.

In either case, it becomes a toss up. Do I want to run XP and turn off the fuzzy gui? Or spend probably just a s long tweaking 2003 to act like a workstation?
