Sixpak
A monopoly buster, Sixpak uses neither an Intel CPU or a Microsoft operating system (or Microsoft anything for that matter).
The combined street price for the complete system including software (well, except Sniffer®) is about $1000. I would highly recommend you spend the money to become your own sysadmin.
