Is there a way I can install Windows 2000 Advanced Server, and set up services in such a way that I can have its resource consumption down to NEAR-Professional levels?
 
My computer is a
 
Pentium III 500
160 MB PC100 RAM

It's unlikely...W2K adv.server takes up a lot of memory due to all the services it needs to have up and running. You can go and disable manually some of them, but it's not a good idea...i noticed that adv.server takes up to 20-30 more mb ram after boot than w2k pro. Hey, it's a server solution, and servers have usually quite "potent" resources (CPU, RAM, buses, etc...)
