The other 'fun' you'll have is if they have serial printers. If memory

This guy wants low cost equipment. If they have been running on a 486

browsing ebay for a 1-2 year old dual core server or workstation.
You'd be surprised at how cheap they are once they come off lease.

Mark,
I'm moving a client to a new server right now. The specs we are
using are Dual Core Xeon 5140, 4 GB memory, with Windows 2003. It sounds
like you could get away with a much smaller system. I shy away from
using desktops as servers, so I'd recommend you go with a rack-mountable

Cost-wise, consider a dual-core AMD X2 system. If you have a little more
funds, the 5140 or 5150 Xeons are well cached chips for the money. Either
way, get a dual-CPU mainboard that is one-CPU capable so that you can drop
in an upgrade chip later as CPU demand increases. (Trust me, it will..)

I agree with what Jerry said. In addition to his points, consider that
