Hello,
As stated by everyone else 4 is correct number for Standard Server.
During the beta the limit was 2 physical processors for Windows Standard
Server 2003, so not everybody got in correct in all the documentation that
the number of processors changed to 4 physical processors.
Thanks,

| Hi. The home page for Win2k3 Standard edition says it supports up to four
processors. However a couple of books, including MS Press' Windows 2003
Pocket Consultant, says it only supports two.
What is the real answer?
Thanks!
