Previously, I'd just add a new install of WP and a new, unique SQL db for each blog.

My question, what is the Best Practice for running multiple blogs on a dedicated box?

These aren't splogs, they are daily updated, handwritten, lots of bookmarkers, lots of commenters.

Thanks, in advance, for the advice.
I don't know shit about WP, but I assume that if you have a dedicated server, and assuming it's just decent, you'd worry about it one you get at least 50x the traffic you're getting. We've a community with 800+ blogs and serving videos and with a 100Mb box it works perfectly fine
