OS X and OS X Server support up to 8GB, so putting more in wouldn't
really help.

AFAIK, other than the 8GB limit, there's nothing inherent about OS X (or
the BSD core for that matter) that would prevent a given app from using
as much of that as it wanted.

Technically, you could run MS-SQL Server on the Mac, but since it would
be running in Windows in an emulator, it really wouldn't do you any
good.  :-)
