what would you use it for, other than cause you can ?
Thanks for replying, sambocom, and charliex.

What I want to do is do file sharing and VPN so that I can connect to my work machine from home and access my files. There's no domain to connect an XP machine to, so as far as I know, I need to use 2k or 2k3 if I don't want to share to everyone in the world. I could certainly use 2k, but sooner or later they're gonna push me to upgrade so I might as well do it sooner. Also, there's a bunch of software I want to check out that needs to run on 2k or 2k3, and also I want to be able to serve more than one website at a time.

If I had the desktop version of the OS, I'd install it and wouldn't have ever created this thread.
