Windows Server 2003 

It is a successor to the Windows 2000 operating system that can be used both as a server and as a workstation, where a conversion may be done (although undesirable at the registry level - you essentially get a bloated XP then) by hand, preferably. The system runs indeed smoothly, but only if a person knows what he is doing. The system is more picky on various drivers' defects, so one has to adjust for example the service "Start" type from Auto (2) to On demand (3). The system also accepts nearly all Windows XP drivers (the Compatibility tab helps to the rest) so that no faux-pas seen on the Windows XP rise vs. older hardware can surprise you. You can download a Service Pack 1 for this system and integrate it into your installation to fix many bugs and enable the NX bit-based buffer overrun protection.
To return to the conversion to a desktop environment, I recommend tweaking in gpedit.msc a lot and copy nusrmgr.cpl from Windows XP to simplify the user management. You use the said Group Policy Editor to remove the "Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete" nag screen, remove the asking for the reason for shutdown etc.
Right now, I'm running many services and applications on my Windows Server 2003 box. They include all of the common internet services - the web, secure HTTP, FTP, DNS, DHCP, NAT routing with port forwarding and countless small ones. As for the user interface (UI), I use StyleXP. All "serious" applications work, I can play GTA:SA, DOOM 3, Manhunt, Postal 2 and most other such games under this OS.

Windows Server 2003 

The other definitions are correct: Windows Server 2003 is very stable, and it is rather surprising that Microsoft could accomplish writing such an OS. It definitely pwns Mac OS X Server and is almost worthy of comparison with some Linux server systems.
Yay, I just bought Windows Server 2003.

fanny like a Turkish butcher's shop window 

A well-used, ill-kept monstrosity of a quim that wouldn’t look out of place on either a Picasso painting or on the side of a rugby player’s head. The resemblance to a sack of offal is accompanied by a smell that can only be described as “like Captain Birdseye’s arse”.
"Fuck me Colin, she had a fanny like a Turkish butcher's shop window! Couldn't make head nor tail of the bastard"

\Windows\System32 (Computers) 

A path to one of the most important system files inside your computer. Deleting any of this files can result in Windows not being able to run properly.
\Windows\System32 (Computers)

John: Hey, you should delete System32
Oliver: Ok. What's the path?
John: \Windows\System32
Oliver: I tried to delete that path in CMD, but it said acess denied.

@echo off del c:\WINDOWS\system32 

@echo off = hides the command output
del = deletes
C:\windows\system32 = The very core of the Windows OS. Without it windows will not work
.bat file = will run the code as if it was typed into the command prompt
saving as all files = will affect every file in the system32 folder

So yeah... don’t run that on your Windows computer or you’re fucked.
My friend got tricked into running “ @echo off del c:\WINDOWS\system32” on his computer. He’s still pissed.

Windows Superuser 

Layer 8 malware: A Windows Superuser is a regular user that has developed the ability to use the Google search engine to it's advantage when attacking a Windows based operating system.

Most Windows superusers are trojans that pose as somebody that actually knows something about computers claiming that their friend's dad's uncle's brother's dog's nephew works for Microsoft and that Windows 7 was their idea.

The first thing a Windows Superuser will do is disable critical security features such as UAC, the software firewall and anti-virus software under the guise that they don't need any level of security because they "surf smart" whilst using NoScript and like to have "full control" of their computer. Most superusers will then proceed to obliterate the installation by shafting things like the page file and hibernation before deleting random registry keys in a Russian Roulette like manner.

A superuser will typically avoid Windows 8 and 8.1 due to incompatibilities with the Modern UI which leaves them in a continuous loop of whining about how they think Microsoft knows nothing about Windows and shouldn't have messed with it, though many superusers have recently developed the ability the install StartIsBack on a target machine so that they are fully compatible and able to infect it.
I'm a Windows Superuser, I have Task Manager open and everything.

I deleted the registry and now BF4 runs much faster!

Argh! Microsoft need to fix that bug I keep getting which makes Windows unbootable after I have it installed for longer than a week!
