[K12OSN] Crossover office

I am considering my options of Crossover office vs Win Server 2003 for
our school. We can get licences for Win Server 2003 quite cheap, but it
would be easier to manage if we only had one server to maintain.

It also comes down to costs. The educational pricing for Crossover
office is $52 where as the server version is $1500 for 25 licences.

            

If I install Crossover office professional on my K12LTSP server, will
all the clients be able to concurrently access it? Or would I have to
get the server version?

 

If we can use Crossover office Professional that would be the preferred
soln, if we had to pay for the server version for concurrent access then
WS2003 would obviously be a better solution.

We can get it for about (annual) $65 server licence, $6.50 each terminal
licence. We get Office XP for free.

 

Any advice?
