I sent Lucas a more extended response to this, but you folks should 
REALLY check out the AMD64 Opteron based servers.  While being 
competitive with Xeon prices, you get double the registers and real 
64bit hardware.

Since Lucas is purchasing for the University, they also qualify for the 
extremely low cost RHEL 3.0 for AMD64 academic licensing.
