You might be surprised how little it takes, actually--I ran a
small-corporate OpenVPN server with about a dozen frequent (I'm not
actually sure how many simultaneous) users, if I recall correctly,
a 100-MHz system Pentium that I build out of parts scavenged from the
company's rubbish-heap. It looks like these Linksys routers are at
least as fast:

And they have to have enough computing-power to run WPA, right?
(how does WPA compare to SSL?)
