Earlier today I was trying to install what I thought was SQL2005

now I find I have Standard Edition for the database engine but
Enterprise Edition for the Client Tools.

Anybody have any idea what is different about Enterprise Client Tools from
Standard Client Tools?

My first reaction is that there isn't any. Possibly that in Standard Edition
there is no support for Enterprise-only features, but it's not apparent why
Microsoft would make the test matrix bigger because of that. So I stand by
my first reaction, there isn't any.
