I have a very small intranet application which runs on a bi-celeron 500
serveur with 256 Mb of RAM. There is a legacy database running in VMware
on the same machine. The disks are RAID 1 on an Ultra 160 SCSI card.
This is adequate for the time being. The application will be partially
put on the web. At that time I will add a serveur for Apache/Tomcat and
leave the database on the existing hardware.
I have another live database which will be going live bigtime this mont
I'll let you know if it survives the load...

I have many more ideas to improve the page. Any contributions greatly
appreciated. A long delayed update shall be started RSN (TM)
