How much do they want to spend. I've gotten quotes on 4 in the last week and purchased two. Here's a quick overview of a couple:

HP Dual Itanium-2 box, should be in the $25k range, dual 1.0 Itanium-2, 2 Gig Memory, 3x37GB u160 Raid3 Hot Swap, Gigabit Ethernet.

Purchased a Dell Dual Xeon 2.4 box, 2 Gig ECC, 3x37GB u160 Raid5, Gigabit ethernet, came in around $9k.

Specified a custom built system - Supermicro Dual Xeon 2.4, 2 Gig ECC, 5x37GB U160 SCA2 Raid3 Hot Swap, Gigabit ethernet. About $7k
