For what use? How big of a database do you have on your $5K server? How many users? Doing what kind of transaction load? Or is it a file server? There's a huge difference in serving up stream files and handling database transactions. When you talk about stability, you have to talk about workloads. Personally, I have found $700 Unix boxes to be VERY stable for specific workloads, such as web serving. Dedicated servers don't get nearly the load a business logic server gets.
