>> Be aware of the memory requirements. In 2008 you are required to have realistic minimums just to load the box. For instance SBS 2008 requires 8 GB RAM. I was going to put up a SBS VM to test but could get it to load due to the hard and fast requirements.

Our little database application doesn't take much memory -- 1GB is more than adequate, so, if you need to add a few gigs to handle the OS it isn't a big deal.

8G is a lot though for a small server.
