Does 2003 server web edition support Intel Xeon processors, or should I use a
32 bit processor?

Ah, Xeons ARE 32 bit processors!

oh yes, of course,
but will the web server edition utilize the EM64T? or would it make no
difference if it did, performance-wise?

tnx

Can't say as it would make much difference based on this bit from Intel.

"Intel© Extended Memory 64 Technology, or Intel© EM64T is an enhancement
to Intel's IA-32 architecture. The enhancement allows the processor to
run newly written 64-bit code and access larger amounts of memory. These
extensions do not run code written for the Intel© Itanium© processor.
Click here for a more detailed description of Intel© EM64T. Further
details on the 64-bit extension architecture and programming model can
be found in the 64-bit Extension Technology Software Developer's Guide."
