Thank you all for your responses. I will pass it on to my IT friend. Sounds like 64bit 2008 or higher is the way to go. BTW, the reason I decided to buy new server is that I tried to upgrade to 6.0 a while back. The program loaded fine but when I tried to use the database tuner, it got hung up as it could not create a backup of the database. I went back and it was only then that I noticed that the amazing backup program had been giving errors for several weeks saying the backup failed. I had not selected the option to get notified... I called support and the short story is that after trying to about 2 hours they asked me "is this a domain server" I said yes and he said: sorry we do not support domain servers and told me to move AC to one of the client computers, which did not make sense to me. Since I virtualized the server now I am able to do a backup so I plan to upgrade this weekend after making a snapshot of the server, just in case. I will let you guys know how it goes.
