Can sql server run on XP Pro?

Hi could anybody advise if Microsoft SQL Server Database would run on Windows XP Professional or would I need to install some server OS first like 2000 Server?You can run SQL Server 2000 Evaluation Edition and Developer Edition on
Windows XP Professional.

Check the Url for more details:

To Pjmcb: do you mean you run the full version on XP Pro?I can get free software from my college but they would not give it to me without Server OS(which they are out of + I would need to change OS)|||I have ran the Standard Edition of SQL Server 2000 on XP Pro and 2000 Pro, no problem.
