>The only disadvantage to Workstation in this situation is that it is designed to serve itself before it serves network requests...where Server works the other way...I have also heard that screen savers become the foreground application (Control Panel, System, Performance Tab to adjust (set to None for server)) so I would not use a screen saver on the server...of course, this is heresay...I haven't verified the information myself...

I've heard rumors last year that some guy hacked out a single registry entry that has to be edited to convert a NTWS into a real server, meaning that the software being installed for both is mostly the same. Now this may be just a rumor or a legend, but it does have some logic. I'm not really interested, just curious - if anyone else has heard of this.
