Well here is a box I've spec'd for a firewall/gateway mailserver and
webserver.

1 Ghz Celeron, 128Mb PC133 ram, MB with built in Lan,snd,video,
Mid tower case w 300W psu, floppy, 20Gb 7200RPM WD hdd, 2nd network
card.

$670.00 incl GST and delivery
 And that can run you mail server, DNS, and a whole bunch of other
stuff, no problems. 

I could swap the second network card for a 56k modem for $25 more.
