Wilson,
What version of Peoplesoft are you going to install? I presume some=20
flavour of 7.x since version 8 is web based. I implemented 3 peoplesoft =
module, basically the company ERP system on Citrix. Installing=20
Peoplesoft in a multiuser environment is quite a challenge. You need to=20
address the issue of the application individual caches, printing, number =
users per servers etc etc. I don't think that you are going to have=20
problems with the OS or the Hardware, the biggest challenge is going to=20
be the fine implementation of a single user application in a multiuser=20
environment. We had to spend a lot of time to integrate this=20
application. Check the citrix knowledgebase=20

412&fromSearchPage=3Dtrue=20
for articles about like this related to the integration of PS.
We used just HP/Compaq for servers, I don't have any experience with =
Delll.
