SBS 2003 Activation
I want to un-install SBS 2003 on a machine and install it on another. Will I be able to activate this over the internet or do I have to call Microsoft? Are there any other issues I should be aware of? Thanks!

What sort of ramifications?
Usually when you activate they have the info on the machine that it was installed on, they will need to be reassured that you have indeed uninstalled it from the original machine (anti piracy), to make sure you haven't installed it on multiple machines

I understand that but I guess I need to know what information will be required? Have you been through this before? How long does it take? Is the activation desk 24/7?

Not too sure about the Act Desk being 24/7.. only had to call that one time, and it was completely automated, and if that is the case, I would assume it was 24/7..
BTW: All I needed was the product key.. then they gave me an installation unlock key..

You will have to call them, and in fact I would call in advance, in case of ramifications
