Cant quite figure out what the limitations are. I always work with Enterprise Edition. I seem to recall Standard edition means no internet users. Is that the the catch? You can use this for a departmental or company wide database but cant hookup it to webservers and web traffic?

thx ( currently reviewing our 8 licenses and the support costs have the CIO pulling her hair out, mine too! )
Looks like Standard Edition 1 CPU for $1000.00 even lets you use it to drive a web site...

Three main differences between SE and EE (and none of them has to do anything with "internet users"):
- SE can only run on a box with maximum 4 CPU, EE has no such limitation
- Most *options* (those that you have to install and licence separately) are not supported on SE, only on EE
- There are some *features* built into the core database (and you don't have to pay for them separately) that are not suported on SE, only on EE
