[dba-SQLServer]SQL Server Dev Without SQL Server?

I thought that MSDE had two very important restrictions - max db size of 4gb
and concurrent user throttling after 5 "users"?  Or is this a different
animal we are talking about.

90% of what you do using MSDE will work on any edition of sql server.
In fact, if you have multiple instances of MSDE all 100% will work
(except for clustering capabilities).

Does the SQl Server desktop engine exactly duplicate the
functionality of full-blown SQL Server? I want to develop
apps for SQL Server backends, but will not have SQL Server
available during development. I need to be able to design
databases and write code, then be able to re-create or
migrate the databases to SQL Server and point my apps at
the actual database for production. Is this a feasible
approach, or do I need to find a way to get the full-blown
SQL Server package to work with?

Thanks for any advice/pointers/information.
