Ok...let's say I believe you...where is the developers edition?  If you try
installing 2000 on a Windows 2000 machine the first thing it tells you is
that you cannot install it on workstation.  Oh...and so no one thinks this
is an off-topic post...boy do I love that ColdFusion stuff...especially the
way it works with SQL.

Well, they do have that. If you just want to install SQL Server on your
workstation for development purposes, you can get SQL Server Developer
Edition, which is functionally the same, more or less, as Enterprise
Edition.

MSDE is a different thing altogether - it's SQL Server without the GUI
tools, designed to support your VB or VC++ apps. It works very well for
that.
