You'll have to forgive me LindaHewitt, i've had too many beers with dinner and am a little confused about what you are asking.

If you are looking for cost effective X86 server hardware, I would personally recommend the Dell PowerEdge 2850. I've had very good luck with them, and they are easy to rack and configure. The rails are a breeze, something I wish I could say for the 4 Sun V440's I just racked yesterday!

The Fortigate 60 is a hardware firewall solution no? For firewalls/content management I would recommend the best Cisco PIX firewalls you can afford. Sure they have problems, but all hardware firewalls do, and the support (including Perl scripts/modules) is the best on PIX. Content management, I would point you to BlueCoat from EdgeBlue.
