but thats just me...also depends on # of peeps you can support

What if you only ever expected to host no more than 6 players MAX? Could a server like that be expected to host more than 5-8 zones?

I hope to have a Piv 1.7GHz - 512MB - 40GB drive - xDSL connection.

Also, I will have a Piii 950 - 512MB - 30GB drive - xDSL connection.

Can you(s) give me an idea how many zones could be hosted on these, if I never have more than 6 players (EVER)?


Thanks much,
