If price is the big concern then I would recommend Windows 2000 Pro or XP using IIs instead of a Microsoft server package. I am running MS Windows 2000 Advanced Server. It will run form $250 to $1200 depending hat bell and whistles you get. You may get lucky and find a Corporate version for around $150 but they are rare these days.
If you truly want a server and SQL package look at Apachy and MySQL.

In your case deploying your application on a windows 2003 web edition makes lots of sense.
