How to find PID in a Windows 2003 server?

Process identifier, or more commonly know as PID or process ID, is a unique number tagged with each processes running on a system.
As always the UNIX and LINUX blokes were intelligent and devised a commond ps to search for the PID of running processes. But unfortunately as always we belong to MS brethren and guess what we do not have any such easy method. So Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7, there is no such utility or command available to get the PIDs.
In order to get to know, or view, retrieve and identify the process ID or PID of the processes running in Windows operating system, users or administrators can make use of Task Manager. However, Task Manager does not display PID information by default. To display the PID value in Task Manager, go to Processes tab, click on View menu, then click on Select Columns…. In the “Select Columns” or “Select Process Page Columns” dialog, tick and check the checkbox for PID (Process Identifier), and click OK.
