Memory wise, it all depends on what you are doing.
A CF Server alone with no database, 256/512MB
The main footprint of Linux is much smaller since it
does not have a GUI sitting on top of the kernel at
all times, unless you are running X on the server.
So on a Linux machine the memory footprint is going
to be much much smaller than that of an NT machine.
You can get just Linux without Apache/CF running
in around 8MB of ram easily without a swapfile.
Apache/CF can gobble up a pretty fair amount of memory
if you have a lot of threads to handle incoming requests.
Apache is not a memory hog and you could have a server
well tuned that could handle a very large load with
around 64MB of ram.
Around 256MB/512MB of Ram for any production server
is reasonable. Unless you are running a database
on this server (not the best of ideas) then you
should not have to worry about it :)
If you are interested in buying some decent Linux
machines that come with RedHat installed and have
more or less the best support among the Linux
industry check out http://www.valinux.com
VA Linux is the best. Their systems are a little
pricey but on the x86 end of processors they have
the best configurations for Linux machines using
really good components.

If they run on AMD processors then yeah it should work.
