I'd do something like this:

* Base Dell Poweredge or similar with dual core CPU
* Minimum 2GB RAM
* A pair of SATA drives in RAID1 (software RAID at the OS level would be
fine)
* MS Windows Server 2003 Web Edition
* MS SQL Server 2005 Express (standard won't run on the web edition OS)
* CF or BD (might qualify as a BD Free edition install)

Might be able to do that for less than $1k
