Developer Edition

Hi All,
I have a very basic licensing question. SQL Server Developer edition is
about $50. Does this include the whole software or is it just a cheaper seat
/ license for an existing SQL Server ?
ThanQ for the information.
Sashank SinguluriThe $50 includes the complete server software, with all the features of SQL
Server Enterprise Edition. There are limitation on how you can use it
though, it is only allowed for development and testing, not production.
