no, can't help sorry just wanted to mention that mainly
being concerned about the cost of the hardware is very
weird! Buying hardware is almost always the least of
the costs (for a company), particularly if you're
presumably talking about low end Suns (since you're
considering replacing it/them with PCs).
If they're suspicious of replacing it/them with linux,
you could suggest free/openBSD - it has more of a
"serious" image than linux (and is suposedly good at
web serving etc, given it's pretty popular with ISPs).
