I can't really give specifics, but a trip to Gilmore and scouring the stores there would get you a power box for around a ~30k budget, and an el cheapo power box for around ~13k for what you want to do. My advice is do it on a saturday, and make a customized canvas form so that you save time from having to say what you want over and over again. Have the sales people write down the prices for you so that you can compare the packages from each other.
Based on experience, buying in bulk will get you better prices. YMMV.
For the software, I would trust debian stable and whatever version squid is in there with the security upgrades automatically in the cron job for a daily update. ;)
HTH.
