This is one place where FreeBSD is very good. It will give you performance
on slightly downlevel hardware that Windows Server just can't touch.

is really pentium 4 "downlevel" hardware? sound like a joke to me.

i made all-need server for small office (8 people) using PIII/500 and 384 MB RAM. i charged them only for configuration and new harddrive, server is for free :)

it runs mail server (including spamassassin, and dovecot), file and print server (samba), asterisk VoIP software, squid proxy and www server.

with proper configuration it rarely swaps, and can easily saturate 100Mbit/s LAN, just not with single transfer, but it's not hardware problem, but windows problem :)
