Sample databases for SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2008

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I have the following questions about sample databases for SQL Server 2005 and
SQL Server 2008:

1. What is the collation (SQL Server collation or Windows collation) of the
sample databases?

2. Are there installation scripts to rebuild sample databases so the
collation of the sample databases is same as collation of the sql server to
avoid any collation incompatibility between sample databases and system
databases?

3. Does the SQL Server 2005 sample databases work for SQL Server 2005 SP3?
