Ian,

I'm familiar with the 1750s having used them in my past job.  I had a 1750 
as my Central getting updates from about 20 different Distributeds and 
accounting for about 1000 total services.  The 1750 was definitely up to 
that task and probably had RAM/CPU cycles to spare.  You could probably 
have an even smaller box, maybe a Dell 850 server as your Central.

Hope that helps!
