Quick question, I have a client who insists on running PS 4.5 on Win2k3 SP2 enterprise edition (32Bit) with 8gb or RAM. I don't think there will be any benefits with the memory limits that the 32bit OS has. Does anyone have any thoughts on this. Thanks.

Memory is usually the primary bottleneck when it comes to number of CCU on a terminal server. You will definately be able to get more users on a server running Enterprise with 8GB of RAM vs. Standard with 4GB if memory is your bottleneck. Make sure not to run x64 bit windows though.

I agree fully with Jody. I'm get about 70 or so users on a system with 8gig's of ram. On the same system with just 4 I could only get around 50. Obviously depends on the apps users are running but you can get a lot of $ worth out of that extra 4 gig's of ram and Ent. version of the OS.
