While we don't have any that large, we do have several customers running 50-60G database on NT4. The machines are typically dual Pentium II 200MHz with 128M RAM. The largest one is about 62M with 10-12 concurrent users. They seem to be quite happy with it. My main recomendation is don't skimp on RAM, Oracle and NT both like to have a lot of it.
