Yes it does work, I have done a few on HP/Compaq here, as a test, but
its not a standard practice, if its built wrong, just wipe it, and
rebuild only takes an hour max.

Yeah, you can upgrade std. to ent.
 
One of my implementation guys accidently built a load of boxes for me as
Std., so I got him to upgrade them to Ent.
 
Worked fine.  He did have issues doing this on a different project where
there was a stupidly small C partition though (4GB I think).  I think
Ent. needs more room, or at least it does if you're using HPs server
installation CDROM...

        I remember there being a simple upgrade from nt4 standard to nt4
enterprise but don't remember reading of any similar upgrade path for
w2k.

        Apparently such an upgrade path *does* now exist once again, for
w2k3 (including the R2 edition). 

        Can anyone confirm or deny that such an upgrade is possible? 

        Thanks, 
        neil
