Kevin, Thanks for your response.
I bought a Dell Inspiron 3847 Desktop that has a Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60 GHz processor and has 16 GB RAM (I think this is the model http://www.dell.com/us/p/inspiron-3847-desktop/pd?oc=fdcwrt220h&model_id=ins piron-3847-desktop). By looking on the performance tab of the task manager, it appears like it has 2 quad core processors. This desktop has come with Windows 7 Professional preloaded on it. So from your experience you reckon that already having Windows 7 Professional preloaded on it, I would not need an alternate VM running a Windows server OS or LINUX in order to stage a Demo environment? What did you use for a web server to support the mid-tier?

Joe, I used a quad core i7 with 8gb ram in a vm on my laptop. Full ITSM and CMDB ran without issues. I used SQL Server 2008 along with Windows 7 Pro.
