There's no way around the 4 GB limit in SBS (actually it's a Windows
Server limitation, not SBS-specific). You could run Windows Server
Enterprise Edition with SBS and other virtual machines to take
advantage of the additional RAM, but Enterprise is expensive. You
could also try 64-bit Standard Edition, but I'm not sure of any
possible restrictions on 32-bit VMs versus 64-bit OS, so I'd check
into all that before purchasing anything.
.....& even so, W2003 Standard couldn't address more RAM even if it were
running in a virtual machine on a 64-bit or Enterprise box with a whole slew
of it.

Is there any way around the 4GB memory limit?
I have an HP ML115 w/ 8GB. Would like to have additional virtual
servers utilize some of that ram.
Should I just run 2003 w/ MS Virtual Server or Linux w/ VMWare and
then run the SBS host as a virtual machine?
any help would be appreciated.
