Getting past 1 GB limit on SQL databases

Getting past 1 GB limit on SQL databases

SBS imposes a limit of 1 GB on SQL databases.  Theoretically you can install
the real SQL Server onto an SBS system and then be able to handle any size
database.

Is this really true?  I mean, has anyone actually done it and knows it
works?

Yes, we've done it and it does actually work.  The FAQ specifies the SKU and
other details (http://www.microsoft.com/backofficesmallbiz/Support/FAQ.asp).
