I am considering buying a new home PC but want to make sure it can handle SQL 2005. Most of what Im looking at comes with XP Home edition. I found this:
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/editions/developer/sysreqs.mspx
but it doesnt specifically say Home edition, and I dont want to purchase without knowing this first. Does anyone know a link that would specify this?
TIA, cfrI was considering buying a new pc for myself, but decided to wait for about 6 - 9 more months. Just a couple of reasons why.
1. Windows Vista will come pre-installed, save yourself some $$
2. Windows Vista is 64-bit compatible, so make sure you get a 64-bit processor. Even though a lot of apps don't run at 64-bit and thus don't really benefit from it, it is still good if your OS is running as fast as possible.
3. Windows Vista supports and adds security (http://www.microsoft.com/sql/howtobuy/sqlonvista.mspx)to SQL Server 2005
Just some thoughts.
Hope it helps|||Does anyone else happen to know about XP Home? Media Center?
