Keep in mind that you could also get the retail version of RHEL,
Professional Workstation (?), which is available from places like
buy.com for around ~$80.  This is a lot less than the $349/year fee for
RHEL ES.  But it would get you the long life-cycle of RHEL which will be
handy if this box will be around a while.  There's also the knock-offs
like WBEL.
