The CPU will be ok. And HD should be enough until the point where
backups from the XOs start to work properly, there you might need more
storage once kids get good with the camera ;-)

RAM-wise 1GB is tight. I am surewe can get Apache/PHP/Postgres-mysql
tuned to work well with 1GB but I haven't seen ejabberd+roster with
lots of active users around. Wad, do you know what the mem footprint
is?

Squid is known to be a problem WRT memory usage -

I do hope to support an XO+harddrive for small groups (~30), but
that's unrealistic at the moment...
