I have a P-III 500 (or was it a 600?) and 256MB of RAM. Its mostly used for web based applications such as TWIG (http://twig.screwdriver.net), email (qmail and uw-imap), and file sharing (netatalk-asun and, soon, samba). No complaints so far and there are about 100-200 people using it daily. Jaime To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
