OK, here's my latest thought.  I just can't stand the idea of six servers for 
500 users.  Seems a bit too many.

Setup a failover cluster with Exchange 2007 running in a hyper-v VM.  This way 
all of the roles can run on a single (heck even multiple) VM and failover as 
needed.

Thoughts? things I should be worried about?  You know, besides Hyper-v not even 
being released yet :)

And the best come with hot-swap RAM and hot-swap processors.

Datacenter server speaks both. I think Enterprise only speaks hot-swap RAM.
Standard speaks neither.

Most high quality servers come with the option of redundant RAM.
