Answer 1

Take a look at Moonlight :

Moonlight

Moonlight is an open source implementation of Silverlight ( http://silverlight.net ), primarily for Linux and other Unix/X11 based operating systems. In September of 2007, Microsoft and Novell announced a technical collaboration that includes access to Microsoft's test suites for Silverlight and the distribution of a Media Pack for Linux users that will contain licensed media codecs for video and audio.

Moonlight 2 was released December 17, 2009

I am certain Moonlight will NOT work as a drop in replacement and am not sure it will come cheaper than using a vanilla Microsoft/Windows based system, since that depends on the 'cost of time', 'cost of risk'.

COST (guestimate)

Silverlight           vs.     Moonlight
-----------                  ----------
license                      - 
install/config               install/config time
-                            compatibility risk
