Developer Edition Restrictions

Are there any restrictions on the Developer Edition of SQL Server 2000? I
am aware that you are allowed only 2 users in at the same time, but are
there other restrictions, like restrictions on the # of concurrent
transactions, or anything else like that? Or is it fully functional,
exactly the same as a regular version, other than the user limitation? I
have it installed on my development machine, and I'm using ASP to develop a
web application, and just wondered if this would be sufficient for running
a web application where potentially 25 or 30 users could be on the web site
at the same time (all using the same user name to connect, so it doesn't
violate the user limit).
Just wondering.
Thanks,
Jesse

There are no functional limitations on Developer Edition. It runs exactly
like Enterprise Edition.
The limitations are only in the license, which is here:

There is no limit on the number of clients who can connect, but they can
only connect in conjunction with "designing, developing and testing" your
application. So you can test your application with 5000 users. But you
can't run it in production at all.
