Yes it works very well. If you don't mind the way MS does service packs The
MSDE initial installation program from the Microsoft site (which is screwed
and doesn't install without performing some really neat tricks) is 20.1MB.
The first service pack they released was something like 36MB, now they just
released SP2 and its 57MB. Enjoy and I hope you either have it on CD or
you've got broadband connection to the internet.
