Dave Watts of figleaf was correct in two things. You can get the developers edition via an MSDN subscription or go to http://www.pparadise.com/ and search for "SQL Server Developer Edition"...there are actually a couple of them. Thanks Dave!

SQL Server 2000 will not install on Windows 9x . You must have either NT or 2000. You can install the client tools, such as Enterprise Manager and Query Analyzer. But, the Server portion will not work.
