Use a linux box to run wireshark on instead.
It is cheaper than terminal servers and as a bonus    on the same
hardware, processing the same capture files,   wireshark will run
several times faster on linux than w2k3

My main concern is which hardware I need to use to handle the traffic. Does somebody have some suggestions? Or have somebody another solution?
