I am about to terminate my ISDN 64Kbps connection and get an ADSL 384 or maybe 512. The ADSL will have a static IP and I will be able to have a 24/7 connection up and running. In addition I will also make a web page and publish it (with apache).
Currently my Linux PC which does all the internet-work is a P-II 350 with 256MB ram and 2x40GB drives. It is running SuSE7.2.
The ISP gave me a list of minimum requirements that the PC which will have the ADSL connection must meet. Among them he requests a P-III 450 as a minimum for the CPU. Is this necessary for Linux?? The minimum reqs supplied by the ISP are concerning a PC running Windows.
Do you think that I should follow the ISP's minimum recommendation or will the machine that I am currently occupying suffice?? your machine is fine...
Thank you for your help on this one.
