http://www.sourcegear.com/vault/
I use Vault as its free for individual use, uses a SQL Server 2000 backend, and is Web Service based so I can access it securely over the internet from my server back home - makes a great code repository.
The integration with Visual Studio 2003 is basically the same as SourceSafe.

team system
Thought of that as well, and would love to recommend it along with the whole 2005 suite, but...even though I'm the person providing all the tech input into the project, selling it to the business might be a little bit hard.
Still, they did say they wanted me to "push their technical boundaries"...

Perhaps a bad choice of wording, but I was trying to keep it short...
Ok, how about "if you were to choose a source/version control tool which runs under Windows, for a Windows based project, which one would you recommend and why?"

Why would a version control system care what platform you are developing for?
I think you are hinting at trying to run the repository on the Windows platform?
For this, there is a Windows port for Subversion:
http://subversion.tigris.org/project_packages.html
However I would assume many of the advantages of subversion, such as tight Apache integration (mod_svn using HTTP/S),Trac (http://www.edgewall.com/trac/) etc are a pain to implement on Windows.
RapidSVN is a good Win32 client to talk to svn repositories, local or remote http://rapidsvn.tigris.org/

Quote from a previous manager when confronted with a request for funding on a CVS package.
More seriously you might want to take a gander at CVSpro - Open source, runs on anything and free if you dont want *all* the bells and whistles.

Have a feeling that any answers given may break out into one of those 'Microsoft is part of the axis of evil', and opensource rules debates, but I thought I'd ask the question anyway.
