What flavor of server 08 would you choose for these servers?

Core or full install.

Exchange 07

Domain controller with DHCP.

File server for user home directories.

In your opinion does the reduced attack surface and fewer patches
outweigh the convenience of having the gui tools and such installed?

I've also got a couple of hyper v hosts and unless someone can convince
me otherwise, core will go on them.

Any advice or horror stories appreciated.
