Rami, Your answer completely depends on the application the users will be using and the type of actions they will be taking in that application. ( Even a few users doing a bad search will bring any application/RDBMS to a crawl.) Generally however there is a "white paper" that BMC published for ITSM sizing. From memory I think 200 users is sized to be a "small" install. (maybe it was medium, but I think it was still small. ) I also think there are considerations for what clients the users will be using. ( User Tool, Mid-Tier, Crystal Reports, Import tool, ect... )
Generally however, buy the hardware that you can afford to by and then try to do performance tuning at the DB when needed. (And user education whenever possible.) You likely will also find that your hardware/performance needs change over time. So be prepared to adjust and improve things as time passes too.
