MOSS development using WSS

[ralphgoodwin]

I am working off of a laptop with Windows Vista Ultimate and 2 gig of ram. Is it possible for me to install and build SharePoint or MOSS applications off of my laptop? Or do you have to have Windows Server 2003?

If the answer is "Yes", can someone point me to some hyperlinks to tell me how to set up my environment?

You'll need Windows 2003 Server to run MOSS. My recommendation is to setup a Virtual PC on your laptop to run MOSS. It might be a little slow given the amount of ram on your laptop.
