Hi Bobby and Dan

"Portal" is the external license.
The other (quote): 
"Get a preconfigured, Internal website based on Windows sharepoint Services, which team members can Use to share information in a collaborative Environment"

Question is how "internal" is defined. Is an employee internal when working outside? How about upgrades? Do you need CALs for the Portal version, etc. etc. Lots of questions - that's why you have to turn to an expert and define very explicit your needs and what you do not need. And if you feel the salesman is unsure in this area, move on to the next.

Look here:
SharePoint Portal 2003 Server Win32 English with 5-Clients (CALs)
http://www.provantage.com/microsoft-h04-00478~7MCSB09M.htm 
$4862.48

It looks like sharepoint services is in Windows 2003 Srv for Small Business
w/SP1 & 5-Clients *Retail Box*
http://www.provantage.com/microsoft-t73-00494~7MSOB3H0.htm 
$413.29

So, it looks like you might find it much cheaper if it is bundled.
