There is a machine at my university (486DX2-66 w/ 16MB RAM) that runs FreeBSD and is acting as a mailhost for 400 students with no problems!

Can someone comment on this ? is this really so (i.e. have some benchmarks been performed) or am I imagining things ? -- Armughan Javaid b98008@lums.edu.pk B.Sc.(Hons) Class of 1998 LUMS, Lahore, Pakistan Computer Science http://www.lums.edu.pk/~b98008
