Before you go to the management for this, do consider
the amount of network bandwidth you require as well.
My experience says, with 10+ users, even if you get a
decently powerful server, You would be needing very
fast network as well. even a 100Mbps switch with no
chaining (i.e. all machines directly connected to it)
may crawl. Prefrably Gigabit optical network would be
required. No way you can achive this on a Wireless
network (802.11 or 802.16 based).

Note: Visualize and pen down on paper your rough
estimates on per user requirment of each client for
server and network.
