I got a quote a few weeks back for a project I was working on for a client:
2.8 GHz Dual Xeon
2GB RAM
2x 147 GB SCSI HD (w/RAID)
4MBps of Multi-homed bandwidth (1200GB transfer/mo)
$619/mo - $699 setup (Linux)
Once we added in getting a control panel licence and server management, we were looking at $850/month, with a $900 setup cost.
We speced out a comparable Dell box for $4,300 and colo'ed it.
Break even points about 8-9 months in for them. After that, it's just paying for bandwidth and power. Probably outside the MT budget but it's a thought.
