OK, I'm realizing that the power thing is just silly.  I'll probably be
consuming more power ultimately because the G3 upgraded box will wind up
pressed into workstation service.  It just seemed silly having such a
powerful box (relatively) doing what a quadra could do.

Does anybody have a sense of how QuickDNS 2.11 and SIMS 1.7 will cohabitate
on a Quadra 610 /16 megs of RAM?  They both seem to have a tiny footprint.

|I've been running on a Quad 610 (or less) for years. With over 100
|fairly active accounts.  It doesn't even break a sweat most of the

|Probably not a serious difference.  You'll save a lot more by simply
|turning off your electric water heater for a couple of hours every
|day.  (I put a $30 timer on mine years ago, and it now runs 1 to 1
|1/2 hrs most days.  Kicks on for an hour before the usual bathing
|routines and for half an hour before dinner prep/cleanup.  I probably
|saved the $30 within the first two months. )
