The stock install will create 4 DB's in SQL server. All will have the org name
as a prefix for the name. The Master DB is NOT used to store any data, it only
stores data related to the SQL install itself.

The METABASE DB only has the METABASE info. MSCRM has all the app data. The
Ditribution DB is used for replication and the CRYSTAL db is used for the
reporting engine.

To add a comment on what Matt Parks wrote. When publishing (replication) has
been disabled on the SQL Server only 3 databases will remain. But 3 is
absolute minimum.
