Ths lack of windows networking and remote printing might be a problem 
for many.

Maybe I'm confused. What does the full version version do regarding 
networking that lite does not? Here is the comparison from the web page:

#
lite version: Winsock 2 Networking

full version: Winsock 2 networking or VNET with virtual network card   
and second IP address support for Microsoft networking

I don't know what the added functionality does.
