If your databases are less than 10 gig in size and will remain that way for
a while, and you don't need replication and some other enterprise features
take a look at SQL Server Express.  The price is really good, free.

The core engine is the same between editions, as far as I understand it,
just limited in the number of CPU cores and/or memory it can use, the
maximum size of the databases, the lack of some of the business tools and
features, and other things like being a master for replication.  I have some
single-server websites that use MS-SQL 2008 Express as a back-end and it
performs just as well if not better than SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition
did.
