In our environment, 90% of the users are running something out of the MS
Office 2003 suite along with IE. All of these are resource hogs. I
would like to see how many sessions, in that same environment, where the
users all had email open and an IE session.
We all know that email is the one application that everyone uses as well
as some form of internet access. So a "real" test would include both of
these apps, per user. Show us 500 users on a box with those apps!

Says support for 1 TB of RAM and the next line says Support for 32 GB of
RAM for the 64 bit versions
Anyways, 500 sessions on a single box is just as realistic as the number
of concurrent connections you have today on a TS box. All depends on
the apps you run. But the question is do you want to really have 500
sessions on a single box? If that box goes down for any reason you have
500 upset users.

I don't believe that is correct. I think you are still limited to 4
GB

I think 64-bit standard allows up to 16 GIG ram, actually.

Now I just need to justify upgrading from Standard Edition to Enterprise
Edition so we can use more than 4GB. It's time for MS to change their
specs/licensing. When we go to 64-bot operating systems the Standard
Edition should allow us to access 8GB, not 4GB.

64bit, small apps, loads of memory. Possible.
Would I really want to do it without a heap of testing and a few
hotfixes. Nope.

Depending on the hardware, software, and use of 64-bit, sure, I buy it.

I am skeptical about their claim of 500 user per server. I'll beleive it
when I see it.
Does anyone know if all portions of presentation server are 64-bit now?
In PS 4 64 bit, some pieces were still 32 bit (like ima).
I am in the middle of a new deployment and have a mess of 64 bit
servers. Citrix consulting recommended we go 32 bit all the way which
seems like a waste to me. Their reasoning was that 32 bit PS code was
better all around than the 64bit edition.
