Server Creation

[nadr man]

I've only been playing EQEmu a few days, but i've decided i'd like to try to make my own server.

I've heard alot about 1. servers costing alot. What are these costs? and 2. unstability. The sever comp is going to be about 700mhz and 100 RAM. The computer i'm using to play is much faster and has alot more memory.

What i need to know is

1) What are the server costs?
2) What kind of comps are you guys using to host the server?
3) How much memory does all the EQEmu software (described in the tutorial of running your own server) take?

Thanks.
