    That all depends on the application, more than anything else.  VOIP is much more banwidth and delay sensitive and could probably only put about 8 to 10 users on an AP by any manufacturer.  Web browsing and email, it is much more (50?).

     

    Let me give you an example:

     

    - If you have 50 users on an access point, but only a T-1 or E-1 internet connection, their experience will be limited to that internet connection

    - If you have 50 users on an access point an some are 802.11n clients and some are not, the non-802.11n clients will take longer to send traffic, which means that it will take everyone longer to send traffic

    - If all of your users are doing Web traffic, there are alot of mechanisms within web traffic forgiving with moderate to heavy packet loss.

     

    If Capacity is your issue, and this is a school, you should attempt to put in one access point per classrom.

     

    Others can chime in with their experience, as well.
