Which Server is best for Oracle 7.3 ?

Hi,

we plan to set up an Oracle 7.3-Server. The size of the database will be around 30-50 GBytes, it should have RAID-5 secured disks and the maximum number of users will be around 3-5. The system should be capable of running several jobs parallel. Some of these jobs need fast I/O, some of them are more CPU-Intensive. So the system shouldnt be very specialized on one of these tasks. The price of this system should be in the range between $15000 and $30000.

We have not decided which OS/Hardware platform to use.

I definitely prefer unix systems because of stability and easy administration
(I mean that :) ) but I dont have very much experience in Oracle so I ask the
readers of this newsgroup which would be the best system for doing this job.

Can anyone give me a hint ?

Thanks a lot in advance,
