If you are looking to start your own hosting company (buying the machines, the internet connection, a warehouse, etc) then you should probably Google for a website that deals with such issues.  If you just want to purchase a dedicated server, then there are hosts that can accomodate you.  If you want to buy a machine that can serve webpages, then at the least you'll have to get an expensive internet connection (usually a business plan) that can handle the necessary bandwidth, and you'll have to put together the necessary equipment.  Again, I would refer you to a website that deals with such issues.

If you are inexperienced on running a server, (and it seems so), I strongly suggest you not to do it on the internet.
