Awesome. Thanks for your help!

Just to give you an idea this is a server I spec'd out at dell for $1,765. I did an Apple as well but that came out to $4,754 (to be fair the apple did use better processors). Needless to say if you can get the programmer to make it work on linux you can save yourself a ton of money. Also the machine displayed below neglects memory/disks since it sounds like these are not critical for your current application. If you intend to do anything with this after your current research is complete it would almost certainly be a good idea to upgrade both following Freakin's suggestions.
