Would have been better if that was the case from the start, Microsoft should’ve made SharePoint installable on XP and Vista which would have made life much easier for SharePoint developers.
Note: This method is *unsupported* http://www.harbar.net/archive/2008/05/22/How-to-install-Windows-SharePoint-Services-3.0-SP1-on-Vista.aspx The demand is out there for this, instead of doing nothing and waiting until a third-party like Bamboo Solutions build this, why don’t Microsoft build this into the regular WSS 3.0 Installer, and while there at it also allow MOSS 2007 to install on XP and Vista, then certify these operating systems as fully supported, but only for development purposes.

Dear All, I don’t normally like to send links around but this was too good not to pass on: http://community.bamboosolutions.com/blogs/bambooteamblog/archive/2008/05/21/how-to-install-windows-sharepoint-services-3-0-sp1-on-vista-x64-x86.aspx “We have put together an installer that allows you to install WSS3.0 SP1 on Vista, both x86 and x64. This will allow you to develop on your workstation with all the power of a non virtualized environment. You still need VPC and VMWare so don’t feel sorry.” (Apologies again for sending the link) Cheers, Aaron Aaron Saikovski Senior Solutions Specialist – Information Worker Groove MVP [cid:[email protected]] M: +61 (0) 410 480 971 P: 02 9448 7300 F: 02 9475 0417 A: Level 21, 8-20 Napier Street, North Sydney NSW 2060 E: [EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> W: www.sdm.com.au<http://www.sdm.com.au/> strategic data management Consult ♦ Develop ♦ Integrate ♦ Deliver Microsoft Application Infrastructure Development Partner of the Year 2007 Business Performance Management l Business Consulting l Customer Relationship Management Enterprise Project Management l Information Worker l Systems Integration This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and are only for the use of the person to whom they are addressed.
