    2,3 and 4: A lot, really big, and a lot... but number 1: be careful with licensing breach.

    Note that evaluation edition expires after 180 days. If you're going to develop something for the business, but an appropriate SQL license.

    Also, make sure you aren't using it for production work. If you are going to do development, I'd purchase the Developer Edition for each developer.
