Romi,
I really like the Dell "business class" computers which run ECC memory. If
I were buying now I would probably buy a Dell Precision 370 but if you still
want to run NT4 you can save a lot of money buying a Dell Power Edge 400SC
Server. The following brand new unit is on eBay and will probably end up
going for less than US $400.

See the attached GIF for specs. This is a lot of computer for the price.
