A little under 56,000 files, at 5 GB.  They're accessed over a mapped
drive from the desktops.  I haven't gone through the directories, but
I'm sure some of those are going to be screenshots saved as PDFs... I
don't expect to search within those, and I have no plan of getting any
OCR software...

No, not at all.  I've got it running under 2k3.

 

How many files and what total size are you talking about?

I looked at Search Server, but that's just a 2k8 thing, right?

+1 for the MS Search Server.

Or have a look at the Google appliance

I'd recommend against a desktop search if these are network shares of
any size.  Desktop search will index them across the network ... For
each desktop.
