Hey there,

I ran a 14 player server on  (few, if any, lag issues):
P3-500
128 mb ram
10 gig ide drive (not even ultraDMA!)
T-1 line

I currently run an 18 player server on (few, if any lag issues):
Dual p3 - 500
256mb ram
2 x 20 gig scsi drives
T-1 line

So, my surmise is that if you have something better than, say, a p3 - 750 or
so, and 128mb ram, and a reasonably fast disk system... You'll be fine.  One
caveat, both those servers ran Red Hat Linux v7.x...  You may need more
horsepower for a windows machine.  I don't know for sure, though...never ran
a windows based cs server :)

One other note, it should be mentioned that your physical connection to the
internet will have some bearing on performance.  I had one of my servers on
a hub, and it ran ok, then moved it to a switch, and users reported lag...
I had to check the switch config and manually set 100mbps/Full Duplex on the
switch... And the lag went away!  Just an FYI for you.

Ron
