Since it is XP, standard & enterprise edition is not possible. You can have SQL 2000 developer & 2005 developer side by side.

| You can run any SQL Server version or edition you want if you run as a virtual machine under Virtual Server, and you have the resources needed on your laptop.It supports Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 or later for non-production use.http://www.microsoft.com/technet/virtualserver/evaluation/sysreqs.mspxCODO ERGO SUM |
