each config manager could have his each Queue Manager and DB.

That's why we use a sortware virtualization namely VMWare, but MSVirtualPC works fine, too. In this way you need only one database on the host machine and confimgrs + db clients on the virtual machines.
All our configmgr environments run on one server (dev + test + qa + prod).
Hope this helps,

I guess that depends on what you call a "server". I'd call that four servers running on one machine, myself.
I mean, you are still paying for four Windows server licenses, right? So it must be four servers!

That sounds like very poor manners, to let your guests do the serving.

Well, the guest operating systems are win2000 professional with valid licenses. We found this config the cheapest  - and the system administration is simpler than 4 hardware + software.
