Hi Experts<br />
<br />
I understand the IBM x226 is using x86 architecture, but is there any way of getting SBS 2008 Standard installed on this server? I have the SBS 2008 Standard in my MS Action pack and am excited to get my hands dirty with it...<br />
Another note, would it work on a workstation with at least 4GB of RAM running a Core2 Duo? (I'm assuming yes, but if I'm wrong, let me know...)

2008SBS - IBM x226

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
