Oh well. So you say I need an HTTP server? Would an old ass computer do it?
Specs are 600 mhz
384 megs of ram.
HDD can be anything from 10 gigs to 60 gigs 7200 RPM.

You think that machcine can handle being an HTTP server? If not let me see if I can get some of my old AMD's working. Also apache and IIS is all free? I dont want like a site such as JW or Piston Heads. I except my site to get less than 100 hits per day so it should be very easy on the bandwidth.
