Is there a way to get a Developer version of Windows 2003?

I am trying to play with Active directory and Sql Server 2005 for
certifications and can't really afford to purchase a couple copies of it. I
think it used to come with the Developer version of Sql Server 2000 but not
sure if it is still available for this purpose.

Thanks,

Tom
 
Re: Developer version of Windows 2003

The Developer version that you refer to is from MSDN subscription (you must
pay for it).

You should try to get evaluation version at:

Actually, we never had an MSDN subscription. The W2K3 came with the
developer version of Sql Server 2000.

That would be another way around it.

What is the time limit on it?
