We're going to buy a webserver dedicated for running an eZ Publish intranet. I've checked out which hardware configuration this site is running on as a referrence. Read more here :

Also this page tells us something about system requirements for eZ Publish v.3.x: http://www.ez.no/products/ez_publish_3/requirements

But I'd like some suggestions on optimal hardware setups (including brand of motherboards and CPU) that's known to run good with my configuration:

Red Hat Linux, Apache 1.3/PHP v.4.3/MySQL v.4/PHP Accelerator v: latest stable.

In short; what's an optimal server hardware-configuration for a eZ Publish intrawebserver serving roughly 1000 users?

For my server I was thinking of an dual CPU-setup with AMD Athlon(tm) MP 2400+, 2Ghz with 2 GB RAM and a SCSI harddrive. But I'm not sure which brand of motherboard to choose, or if this setup will be overkill given the requirements..
RAM: 2Gb RAM

Good suggestions?
