Saxon to answer your question Windows XP 32 Bit runs the 5.1 version of hte kernel. Server 2003 runs 5.2 version. While that may not seem like that major it is. XP X64 also runs version 5.2.
The main thing is that the kernel versions do not vary much. But how the coding is done for the OS to work with the kernel. A Server OS is much more stream lined and security oriented. While for a desktop it is more toward function and ease of use.
