I have no experience with WS2003, but I do think that XP is the best
version of windows you might run.  I doubt any of the 'server' features
would be useful on a personal desktop, like Active Directory, IIS and
other such server software.

...and please don't tell me to install Linux...I need my Windows
software.

I won't argue then :)
