But this may in fact not save you any money.  If you will have (for argument) 12
copies of Windows running on the server,  and 12 copies of office,  you may
still need to license 12 copies of windows and 12 copies of office.  It matters
not to M$ that they are all running on the same machine.  Before going further I
would have a VERY close look at the license agreement.
