Our library has received a grant to give access to the internet and other
services to rural doctors and nursing home type facilities in the state of
Ms. My question is will a FreeBSD system support about 25 users and the
following services:

	A Listserv software
	A gopher server
	Pine e-mail
	A News reader - which ones are available?
	
I have no previous experience with a free Unix type box, but was wondering
if a Pentium might not save them the money of buying say an RS6000.
