This may be an ignorant question, BUT I felt I'd better ask it anyway before
I take this plunge into Server 2003...

The Question...

As a rule will windows Server 2003 Standard edition run all the
applicatuions I run under Win XP Pro?

eg: Office XP, Mathcad, Visio

Are USB ports supported? How about DVD writers et al?

Just want to make sure I am not giving up any of my current functionality by
jumping to 2003!
