Hardware: Dual AMD Athlon processors (2+ GHz) Tyan motherboard with 760 chipset? 1GB DDR memory with ECC. (2GB if budget allows)

I would suggest to use 2GB Memory. If budget doesn't allow, use slightly slower processors (1.8GHz?) and use the money for the RAM.

40 GB+ disk (probably IDE) SCSI

So what do you need SCSI for, if the disk is IDE? Performance is not only a question of hardware.
