If you install only the "Client Tools" then they do not time out - only the server itself times out after the evaluation.
I'm 99% positive that the SQL Server 2000 Client Tools (Enterprise Manager, Query Analyzer, etc) allow you to attach to both version 7 and 2000 databases (but, I'm pretty sure, not to SQL 6.5 databases). So my advice would be to install the client tools, but not the server.
