Don't quit working with filemaker entirely.  It has many advantages, such 
being great for quick prototyping.  Just don't waste time trying to use FM 
as a web backend, 'cuz that gets ugly quick.  A Mac user can fulfill that 
need with MySQL/PHP  (or PostgresSQL/PHP) just fine.  I know of at least 
two options for doing this:

1) OS X
2) using one of the Linux distros for Mac (ex. LinuxPPC, YellowDogLinux, 
SuSe)

Both options are very cheap to try, and offer slightly different 
advantages, so no harm in trying out both.  Plan on setting aside 1GB or so 
for a Linux partition, for which you get a dual-boot Mac--giving you all 
the advantages of Mac PLUS all the advantages of Linux in one box.  Not 
bad, eh?
