This site is beautiful! It has a lot of potential to become a high traffic site. However, a few issues will need to be attended to in order to get return visits, if that is your goal? First, I had a hard time finding how/where to post my question and most previous questions submitted by others have not been answered.

What's the differents between my current os xp pro and server 2003? Can I have both running on my computer? I was under the impression that server 2003 was needed only if your were hosting.

As I said, the site is great I hope there will be more to come...

Hi dede,

Thanks for the compliments. With respect to your suggestion, I'll have 'Discuss this Tutorial' links at the bottom of all of the videos pretty soon. Those will link into forums here that will be generally categorized based on which tutorial you viewed.

Now, to answer your question...
XP Pro is designed to be a destop operating system that you use on a daily basis, while Server 2003 is designed to be a server. In other words, Server 2008 is optimized for, and includes features that are designed to run standalone servers. For example, you would use Server 2003 if you were running an Exchange server, a web server, etc. Many people choose to use Server 2003 (and now Server 2008) as a desktop operating system for personal reasons.

I hope this answers your question.

Best,
Michael
