Installation for Windows XP PRo

I am running from a Windows XP Professional system and would like to install SQL Server 2005. Since I am not running on a server I'm not sure what version I should install. I need access to Reporting Services. Should I install the 2005 Developer Edition? I don't seem to find it in the downloads from MS. Am I on the right track?

Yes, you want 2005 Developer Edition (which functionality is the same as Enterprise).

You will also need to install Internet Information Services (IIS). Go to Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components.

I think you will need the XP Pro CD.
