Don't know about that for certain, but don't forget that you're definitely going to need the 64-bit version of Windows...

This would imply that I demote my existing 32-bit boxes to mail-server, ftp-server and such, and replace them on the development stage with authentic ground-up 64-bit boxes. Is this correct, or is there any point in attempting to salvage and re-use old hardware....
