The Apache web server can run on Win2k. Also, IIS.
Having said that, how expensive can a server for a small intranet really be?

Probably much less than the cost of your time to produce a hackish solution
in javascript, plus the cost to maintain this weird site that no-one will
quite understand after you leave the company.

Tell whoever's paying that if they want it done properly, a web site
requires a web server.

If you *must* do it as static pages, I'd recomend creating a dynamic site on
your own box, then using a grab tool (such as wget) to grab a static
version of the site.
