Just upgraded my 4 year old Vostro "server" to Dell studio XPS 9100, 12 GB RAM, Win 7 ultimate 64bit, Raid 1. Works very well. Seems that all my workstations are working even better then before. I didn't have any speed issues with AC V6.0.10 but now whole system is faster.
Hmmm, that is our other option to get a good workstation rather than a server. I definitely want RAID 1 this time (we have no RAID today). So good to know you can do that with their workstations.
For SBS I was just reading you need to buy CAL (client access licenses) for users and devices? That seems like another barrier, just understanding and managing them not so much the cost. But maybe it's easy?
Connection limit of 20 would be plenty for us.
A nice sounding thing the servers have is dual power supplies.
I'm still undecided.
