I cannot figure out how much it's going to cost me SQL Server 2005 for a bi-processor, and 10 PC clients.
I am interested in STANDARD or WORKGROUP licensing.
I've tried to look into the price matrix but without success.
Thank you.

I don't know how big of a shop that you run, but I think your easiest bet would be to talk to your software supplier (such as CDW or whoever you use) and talk to their licensing people. It's kind of ridiculous how complicated licensing has become, it seems like I've seen training classes in licensing and management.

Thank you for your advise. At least it is not only my impression (it is too complex)!

It's nuts, Claudia! I went through trying to find out what the licensing requirements were for multiple instances on 2000 and 2005. Absolutely crazy. No, it's not just your impression. It's rather nice having someone (your main software vendor) looking out for you on the issue, save yourself a lot of grief!
