Personal Edition

I currently have a copy of SQL Server Enterprise Edition through MSDN
subscriptions. Everything I have read indicates that there should be a
Personal Edition of SQL Server on the same disk. I do not see this option
during the installation. I have also searched the individual files on the
disk with no success. Does anybody know where these files are located?I'm not totally sure but I think that the Personal Edition got installed
when you try to install the Standard Edition on an operating system which is
not a server edition, like WinXP.
Maybe it's the same thing with the Enterprise Edition but if you wan to play
the enterprise features like materialized views on a workstation, then you
should install the Developer Edition instead.
