My server is good for a laugh, but it beats collecting dust in my closet. The main reason I use it is for filming in-game videos so I can have a near zero ping which helps with lag/fps issues. I do my playing elsewhere.

Intel P233 o/clocked to 266 Mhz
96 megs 72 pin simm 60 ns
2 gig SCSI drive on Future Domain SCSI controler.
Trident 1 meg video card
Realtek 8029 10Mbit NIC
Mandrake Linux 8.1 with no Xwindows to save resources...stock kernel.
Cable connection which I would swear is capped to 45-60 Kb/s
Public beta 2 of the Linux server

With all of that, (or lack thereof) I can host to about 8 people provided they're all <100 ping before anyone starts bitching about lag.

sv_fps is at 18

EDITED.... Before I used win2k..... 6 people was the cap
