I run a small website from my home pc. I think I need to upgrade it to
Windows Server 2003 Web Edition, as I run into the 403.9 - too many users
connected error. But I would like to still have only 1 machine total.

I have 3 questions related to doing this:
1) Can Web edition still be used as a home pc - run MS Office, play games,
multimedia, etc>
2) If I install on top of my existing XP Pro system, will I lose access to
exsiting datafiles? I know I would need to reinstall apps.
3) With Web Edition, can I have unlimited inbound internet web connects
without purchansing any sort of license pack?
