Seriously? That's personally one of my goals of running my server...so that I can let
my
friends use up disk space, memory, processing power, etc. Speaking of processing,
overclocked Celeron 450s kick butt!(for the money.) I benchedmarked my 450 in
Windoze(just
to use the benchmark program) and it got the same Ziff-Davis CPU99 mark as a Dell
Dimension
P3 450. Not bad, I say...
