Have you tried to buy a P400 recently? :-)

Webmail/PHP/MySQL/SSL/virus scanning are RAM and CPU hogs, so we bumped 
the lower limit to handle typical offices using webmail and virus protection.

RAM is the major key - give the server lots if you are running
webmail. It's probably even cheaper where you are, but 256Mb RAM set me
back a whole AUD$65 yesterday.
