We're running a couple of our smaller production databases on Linux 
boxes at the NC Dept. of Public Instruction, and they're working out 
well.  I don't have the specs in front of me, but they're Compaq 
DL-360s with dual 1Ghz+ procs and 2GB of RAM.  The machines are barely 
even ticking with that much hardware.
