Somewhere heard that each terminal takes 100MB RAM, is it true? What else I should take in account? That would be perfect, you may run out of ram though depending on what you run on the server and client. -- When you say I wrote a program that crashed Windows, people just stare at you blankly and say Hey, I got those with the system, for free. - Linus Torvalds, 1995 -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
