What is your argument for having two separate servers?

Subject: Hardware Architecture.. please advise

I am designing a new data warehouse and will be using Discoverer and Portals
on the Apps server/middle tier. My sys admin wants to purchase the new HP
RP7420 for production. He wants to purchase one server for both the apps server and the database server instead of separate servers for each app server and database.

He says he can partition the server to make it look like 2 separate servers.
Can anyone offer me some advice if this is a good idea or not? My gut felling is to stick with separate servers but I know technology and industry
standard architecture changes.

Thanks in advance!
