our main machine is a linux box running rh7, and is a quad p4 zeon with
2GB of memory. We have run out of memory on a regular basis, and we're
not even live yet (simply a few people developing and testing). Each
java process can be 144M according to "top".

Reloading jetspeed application seems to leak processes, so memory usage
can grow a bit if you're reloading the app quite a lot - which happens
frequently during development.

We're probably slightly overspec'd on CPU - it doesn't take more than 9
seconds to restart jakarta tomcat/jetspeed... but I wouldn't say the
website is amazingly quick!

disk space isn't a problem, but you'd probably want to be running quick
(scsi) disks for sustained performance to avoid the bottleneck of IDE.
The whole of apache/tomcat/jakarta etc doesn't fill more than a few
hundred megabytes.

you could probably use your machine quite happily for a site with modest
number of users if you're not developing on it.

p.s. of course someone will come along and tell me that I shouldn't be
using Sun's j2sdk1.4.2_01 on redhat7.3 with apache1.3.28 with
openssl0.9.7c with tomcat5 and mod_jk2, and that I could get it all
running on an old 486 with 16MB of memory swapping to a floppy disk :-)

 what do you say i have got A red hat Linux 9.0 running on that PC
and are you serious about that quantity of ram
Please do tell me

it can be a bit of a shock

if I were you, I'd start with a plain boring linux box (at the risk of a
flame war, I like Debian for servers). You'll be wanting lots of RAM in
it, well over 512MB or even 1.5 or 2GB!

Then get apache 1.3.xx working. 

Then install java and check it compiles and runs things. 

Then get tomcat working (using mod_jk). 

Then get jetspeed1.4 (stable/current) and build/install it.

other things you'll want to do useful things:
mysql or oracle DB

if you've never done any of the above before, you'll need a couple of
weeks to get it right.
