Does my client need SBS ?

Hi Guys,
I am trying to convince one of my clients that they need SBS 2003. They
currently have a peer to peer network, a mixture of XP Home and Pro PC's, 2
different workgroups, no backups, a mixture of different anti virus apps on
the workstations, users chatting away on Messenger, etc...a real mess. I
showed them the SBS PowerPoint presentation from the MS SBS site and they
seem impressed but I need to put together a document detailing what
improvements will be 'visible' to them. I've pointed out the obvious
(centralized file sharing, regular backups, shared fax, remote working,
file/folder security etc) but the 1 main thing they are questioning me about
is the SQL Server part of SBS Premium. They want to know if they can all
access a mailing list database (which is currently simply a Word document
that they then mail merge) and all have the ability to ammend it. SQL is
something I've never touched so here I am again asking for your advice. Can
this be done natively with SBS/SQL or do I need a third paryty app? You
might have guessed that price is a concern here but if I get a green light
on this from you guys on this simple (?) matter, I can convince them to part
with their cash. Many thanks for any help you can give me on this.
Regards Colin.
