Mac will do just fine. As will a Linux box or two.... In fact, a old (I mean *old* pentium 1 or even 486) machine will run Debian or Slackware just fine to run a small LAN dns server, local email, etc.

Edit - IIRC there are some home user routers that will do dynamic-static addresses - always give a given MAC address (hardcoded hw address) a certain IP, which lets you leave stuff that you actually use elsewhere set to dhcp.
