Installation on XP

Hi,
I want to install SQL 2005 (Any edition) on my XP SP-2 Machine. Please note
that it is desktop, there is no LAN Connectivity. It is only for study
purpose. Can any one tell me which edition is appropriate for it and how can
I get it.
Any hints will be sincerely appreciated.
Hardik ShahExpress is free but Developer is only about $50.00 and is essentially
the Enterprise edition so you would have all the features to study and
work with.
