Virtual PC running Windows Server 2003

I think its possible to run Windows 2003 Server in Virtual PC 2004 but can someone confirm this.

:

What can be configured within this environment, IE is 2003 fully configurable or is it not worth doing?

What are peoples experiences of this?

Oh and is there a evaluation of 2003 that you can use for home labs etc (eg for a month or so) without having to buy the full product and licence?

I have Windows 2003 Server running on Virtual PC at the moment, I haven't done much with it to be honest as just using it really to see what the books talk about when I'm studying and also we are putting in 2003 here soon and I'm testing our software on it...

There is definetly a trial version that is valid for 90 days I think? (Can't remember right now) I downloaded it from MS site.

Here's the link - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/evaluation/trial/default.mspx

Thanks for the link!

Anyone know how configurable (in networking terms) is Windows 2003 run on Virtual PC and XP as the client on the main system?
