Let's see, in 1990 I was operating one of the first commercial ISPs in the
country, dixie.com, on a 33 mhz 386 Interactive Unix pc with 32mb of RAM and a
gig of hard drive across two drives (about $3000 worth). That little machine
drove a T1 and 32 Telebit dial-up lines, mostly feeding news downstream. Also
supported 3 programmers on that machine. I was the envy of anyone who mattered
:-)
