Prices at this level are negotiable. Who knows what you could pay?
http://www.cisco.com/ - the old man on the LB-gig.
http://www.f5.com/f5products/bigip/LB520/ - the second old man in the LB
gig.
http://www.suse.com/us/business/products/server/ - Suse has always been a
big player in the Linux-HA world..
http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/purchase/ - they have clustering based
on LVS, not sure about price. At this point you have to buy enterprise
edition (or http://www.whiteboxlinux.com) to use the clustering software.
http://www.ibm.com/ - always an option..
http://www.dell.com/ - moving up in the datacenter world. I see lots of
Dells now..
http://www.ebay.com/ - see how much the gear is worth on the open market.
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ - $0. There's plenty of people on list
who can help you and your boss feel more comfortable with your setup. I'm
sure if you posted something some people would be willing to help make you
sleep better at night. BTW, you know about the http://www.ultramonkey.org/
and http://www.keepalived.org/ projects, right?
