I just wanted to know if anyone can tellme how much ram I have to buy for a Server that uses Terminal Server Clients.
I mean, How much RAM uses each terminal server client that connect to the server?
Let's say I have 4 Terminal server clients. How much ram must the server have?

TIA,
The OMICRON

Each session on the Windows Terminal Services server will use a minimum of approximately 20 MB of RAM for that session just to log on. Add to this any RAM required to run the programs that each session launches. A typical user running Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Excel while connecting to the Internet will use approximately 40 MB of RAM, or approximately 20 MB beyond what the session itself requires. However, a power user can easily use twice that amount, while developers or other extreme users can go even farther.
