Why anyways? You're developping nice devices? This just might not be the best place for this type of discussion...

The stuff that you download from microsoft is huge, do not install it on a wimpy box. It will install mssql and a whole bunch of other stuff. The fun part is that the software will build working copies of XP Embedded. They just blow up after a couple of days. We have been working on several devices that use it and really like it. Just be careful it has a sharp learning curve. Also the development license for it is 1000USD. If you actually need to do development work it is nice as in you can have all the "prototypes" you want and not have to worry about licenses. Also another thing that is nice is that you can make a copy of xp with no swap file. This is great if you want to put the os on a flash drive. You can also make it so that the flashdrive is read only, that way the drive will last for a ling time, and you dont have the constat reads and writes that is normally associated with xp. Or if you perfer the image can be bootable from cd. That is how we do our inhouse testing. If you have questions ask.
