Hi all, Our organisation we have 25 computers and we are trying to setup Windows Server 2003. We are planning to configure

  • Active Directory
  • NAT
  • DNS server
  • Visual Studio Team Foundation Server
  • Subversion (SVN)
  • Trac (Bug tracking tool)
  • FTP server

And our Hardware configuration is

  • AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual (Core processor 5600+, 2.60 GHz)
  • Asus motherboard (M2N series)
  • Transcend 4 GB RAM (800 MHz)
  • 500 GB Hard Disk (RAID enabled)

But my colleague is advising me AMD won't suite for servers platforms, and use Intel environment. Also they telling we can't install all the services to one server.
I got confusion what to do?... Is really can`t install above services to AMD computer?

Thanks...
