I've been kicking around the idea of setting up a small home domain with Windows server and less than 4-5 client computers. Mostly just for the learning experience. I have approximate knowledge of how all this stuff works.

So I would need the Windows server OS and pro versions of windows for each client computer.

Whats the cheapest way to do it? It would be cool if there was like a bundle deal for home use only sorta thing. (server + 3 copies of windows 10 pro) Or do I have to buy each piece in full? I intend to use existing and old hardware that currently has home versions of various Windows OSs.

I realize there are evaluation versions of everything for use. My intents would be to do it and keep it.
