Stephen,

if you want to make your life easy, then buy the HP product T2030A which is a w2k3 Enterprise Edition software media and this also includes the license. It comes on a DVD that allows you to re-image the server very quickly and which besides the Windows OS adds all needed software, drivers, agents and pre-configres certain Windows features to make it as easy as possible for you.

If you prefer to use the Microsft supplied media (retail media) then the install procedure is more complex and will take more of your time, it all depends how familiar you are with installing windows and using the SAC channel etc etc.
