Hi,

I'm looking in to buying a box for Oracle 8i for a web application (with Coldfusion). Which hardware / OS will give me the best results for my (small amount of) money? The Dell servers seem pretty well speced for the cash compared to Sun, but is Linux OK to go with instead of Solaris which is now "free"?

Any thoughts much appreciated.
