We do run significantly more than that.

A lot.
Our volume is relatively low, but we use a Windows 2000 P4 server I built
myself over 2 years ago and XWall. Cost about $1,600 total and there are no
maintenance fees. It could scale much higher than the volume it handles
currently.
My experience is different; about half of our spam volume is from
professional spammers in China, Korea and Russia. The rest is Windows
zombies and odds and ends.

I have spent over $10,000 on hardware this year, and untold time,
that serves no purpose other than to scrub spam. I can tell you from
experience, logs and stats that 90% of our spam is coming from
infected Windows machines.
