Hi, dont know a lot about this product but someone was asking me about it:

does it only come with isa 2000? if so those who install it do you normally put in another firewall product with it? Any major downside to the product?

Thanks.

Great product imho ... been using 2003 premium for a while, no problems other than the normal bits and pieces

Dead handy bit of kit.

SBS premium 2003 itself has to sit on one box (PDC) and is limited to 75 users.

If for whatever reason you need to add another (full) windows server box to your network the CAL for SBS automatically covers the additional CAL (free windows CAL basically).
