    PRO , it's free for six months and doesn't have Aero interface or some other features that slow Vista.

    CONS, doesn't have multimedia built in, / directx and you have to enter password on each logon, am not too sure if they have system restore ( that was a big loss when using 2003 server as a workstation )
    you have to wipe and install again in six months time

    there are some nice articles about using 2003 as a workstation which show similar pros/cons and some solutions
