If he's getting it from a major cable provider a 24 slot TF2 server will eat 
his bandwidth limitations per month (sounds like a comcast plan, 250gb/mo 
regardless of plan unless he has a business line.)

1 24 slot tf2 server (if you consider it being always near full) will roughly 
use 200gb up/down, at least from my experience, on maximum rates needed to 
sustain no choke @ 24 players per month. You could probably squeeze by by 
adjusting the rates, but your best bet would be to colo or a business 
connection. Colo would probably be cheaper and you wouldn't have to worry about 
using personal bandwidth (downloads, etc) causing interruptions on your server.

No, it's a separate box, I am just trying to find a good colo right now, got a 
buddy who is getting a 50/20 connection soon so I may toss it up on that when 
he gets it.

Try use the "stats" command on your server. This might tell you a
little about how powerfull your server is.
I run a 16 player counter-strike:source on fy_poolparty_v* on my own
homeserver, much like your (RAM, internetconnection) and I've have
never had any problems.
Poolparty is a very static map, but I guess you should be able to run
one or two... (my css server is not alone)
