I guess its an interesting exercise, but hardly practical. Now, if someone could come up with a hack that would work with Vista keys, then you'd have something.

If you don't have a valid serial for W2k8 Enterprise or wish to retain Media Center functionality, I'd suggest using 64-bit Vista Ultimate (or Home Premium) instead.

You have to follow the steps mentioned in the article. I have 8G, before the change I only see 3G, after I see 7G. Because 32bit 2008 server only support up to 8G, and 1G will be used by OS, so seeing 7G is perfect fine. One key step is that after replacing the tokens file, you have to reboot. When the machine up again, it will ask the key, enter the key of the server version, then let the activation go through. If activation did go through, the token file from 32 bit server will be overwritten by 32 bit vista, and for sure you won't see any memory change. Once I passed that point, I got what I need. I have no problem with the getting property by right clicking my computer. The only thing so far not working as mentioned in the article is the getting the manage screen by right clicking my computer. I'm happy about the result. The trick works.
