I read about using different default ports for managing and viewing a Plone
site but was hoping I could use my spare IPs rather than play with
non-standard ports for websites. If I can do so by installing Apache, I'd be
interested, too. I will have no use for IIS after I have Plone sites to
replace my current sites.

No links here, I'm afraid - but a search of plone.org will pull up a bunch
of stuff. The short answer is that, by default, Plone uses port 8080, rather
than 80, so it will not impact your existing content until you do IIS's
equivalent of ProxyPass. Why don't you install Apache on the box to keep it
entirely separate - it's a better server than IIS anyway.
