I would compare the features before settling on Home. Business and Ultimate have more features than home does...especially in dealing with networking.

Since my dev machine is a desktop and my server is a Dell PowerEdge, I really see no reason to shell out the extra $40.00 just to get IIS. I have DW set up to load the files to the server on save anyway, and I do not recall the last time I actually served up my sites on the localhost. My laptop though will have to stay XP since is is a Pentium III with only 500mb of ram (I only use to to do dev work on the train ride to and from work, and I synch the updated pages/sp's/tables onto my server). All of my customers sites are hosted on the same platform as my dev server, and I like to have my dev environment the same as their production servers.
