I downloaded and did a native-machine install on TFS yesterday. Following Rob's instructions, I made it thought a physical machine installation (i.e., not a VPC as usual) on my home Windows Server. It, of course, warned that my 1.5GB RAM and Athlon 2200+ might not be fast enough, but I think it will handle one person well enough. I using a single-server configuration in workgroup mode (i.e., not AD) and followed up by installing Team Explorer.
Everything went well except for a file-not-found exception in CoverAn.exe during the foundation server install... I ignored the error and later discovered that Rob has an answer for that too (i.e., ignore the error).
Since then I've installed Team Explorer onto a notebook and connected to the TFS as a workgroup user. Everything seems to work fine! I probably won't have time to play with build or proxy for awhile; but in the mean time I have a great playground for Team System!

Buck and Doug confirm that Beta 3 will not only support Active Directory 2003, but also the much anticipated Active Directory 2000 and workgroup modes. Although I anticipate most corporate customers will use AD, the workgroup mode will make it easier in a training and test environment. And many corporate customers will still be using AD 2000 instead of 2003.
All hail beta 3! It's getting harder to wait for B3 to arrive on MSDN!

Although my head isn't above water yet, I have at least recovered my password for the blog after my hard drive crash last month. I'll get back to my normal blogging shortly. In the mean time, if you missed PDC, check out the Windows Workflow Foundation website.
