Sure it is. :)

ASUS P6NP5 w/ 150-MHz Pentium Pro:	$435	(5 PCI slots)
2 x 32MB 60ns 72-pin parity RAM:	$418
Generic ISA video:			$35
Intel Etherexpress Pro 10/100 PCI:	$79
Case + Power:				$50
3.5" Floppy:				$24
Adaptec ISA SCSI controller:		$129
1GB Seagate SCSI:			$249
					----
					$1419 + Shipping < $2000
(Prices from various places in June Computer Shopper. You could probably
find lower prices if you looked hard.)

Now the question of at what point this router will saturate the PCI bus is
more interesting...
