Oh

proffessional webservers use special hardware, which is incredible
expensive, especially for non-comercial use. ( for example yahoo gets 18
milion hits a day too much for your old pentium 75 in the corner of your
room)

the most important thing is RAM and the right connection. so i suppose a
athlon-700 with at least 512mb and a T3 clould handle more than 100000
hits a day. but im really not sure.
