Tim,
You can not install SQL Server 2005 on a client OS, you can install
the express version which has allot of the functionality but like mysql has
allot of limitations and very limited administrative functionality (mostly
its frustrating).
Regarding Vista,
We are staying away from it until at least SP1 (so I hear), I can
not find any reason to move to it the only real benefit I see with it is it
is prettier which is no reason to migrate. Like NT before SP4, 2K before SP3,
and XP before SP1 (or arguable SP2) it is basically not worth it but hey if
you like graphics....

Timothy,
There is an issue with installing SQL Server 2005 and Vista. SP2 for SQL is
supposed to correct this but it didn't work on my computer. There is also an
issue with Visual Studio 2005 and Vista. A VS patch was recently released
but it didn't work. My computer and video card are new and fully compatible
with Vista, so it's not a hardware issue.
I have been running Office 2007 and Vista Ultimate 64-bit since Vista RTM and
Office RTM were released last November. Because of the lack of stability and
the incompatibilities I have decided to get rid of it. This week I went back
to Windows XP. In my opinion and based on my experience Vista is not ready
yet. I will probably wait until SP1 is released before looking at Vista
again.
On a related note, since you have multiple instances of ARS running on your
notebook, the free Virtual PC 2007 is good and will run on Vista.
Stephen

OK.....here is a question. I am a consultant who carries around multiple
ARSERVER instances on my Laptop. I have a 5x, and 7x server loaded on a
Windows XP laptop. I already am aware of the client limitations; but are
there limitations to AR System Server living on a Vista machine with say SQL
Server??
