FYI If you are going with 8GB ram then you will have to use 2003 Server ENT edition or 64 bit. I would stay away from 64 bit server for terminal services.

They require a Term server that'll support 20 users with Office 2007 Small business, the customers primary need is for Word and Excel. Do you think this is sufficient to support 20 concurrent users? I'm trying to compete against Dell for the customer's bid so I need to keep it as low as possible. Dual Quad-core Xeons (2.33Ghz) 8GB RAM 3 disk Raid 5 (plus spare) (7200 Rpm drives) w 15 or 32MB cache + Hardware raid controller cache has (512MB) Win2K3 Thanks for your input.
