If your game server was going to serve UT/Q3 (or similar) for many people (>6) then I would probably rule out the PPro. Just not enought juice to support that many, comfortably. The 550/BP6 setup would do nicely for that. In fact, I used to run a few UT servers off of a BP6 system using linux. It ran very well.

The Xeon would also work well I think. I've never used a Xeon before, but 450Mhz is plenty of juice for game serving and the other activities you mention.
