There are no official recommended guidelines for sizing.
Server spec would depend on your intended use: how many content nodes, how many properties - generally getting a feel for how large the XML cache (in memory) will be. Will you be using SQL Server? will that be hosted on the same machine, or elsewhere?
How much traffic would you expect? Concurrent users, requests-per-second, etc.
Server Sizing
Hi All,
Are there any recommended guidelines for server sizing for Umbraco?
Thanks
Amit
I don't think that there are any guidelines, but perhaps this package can be helpful: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/disk-space-monitor.

MSDN have a Server Sizing Guide here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb608286.aspx
Quick/dirty answer is get as much CPU, RAM and disk-space as you want to afford.
Cheers, Lee.
